A few more. The PLM 55-300 PLM gives you an advantage over the long lens shooters because you can deke around avoiding tree branches. I left the long glass dudes in the parking lot complaining about the branches in the way. In fact I believe I detected some turned up noses. And then some shock, when I pulled out the K-1 and 300 2.8 for the Pine Marten, and they realized I was using this tiny little lens because it was my choice, not because I didn't have what they had. They were totally unimpressed with my suggestion they might do better with light portable glass. Some folks just don't understand closer is better. I guess dropping $5k on long glass doesn't help them understand that. If you can shoot from 6 feet away with no tripod, do it. Or as stated elsewhere "If you don't like your pictures, get closer."
