Once again, thank you all who shared.
One aspect that keeps recurring in my mind, is that of purple fringing (or whatever-the-colour fringing).
For the DA*300, it is quite fully useable at f4.0, with either no fringing or very very minimal, so minimal as to be nearly nil).
What about the F*300 and the FA*300 when it comes to fringing, especially at f4.5?

That 'fly on face' is just amazing.
(The optical prowess of the F*300 is definitely top notch).
Originally posted by noelpolar The F* 300 is the most compact.... I take it overseas as part of a small kit...... doesn't shout 300mm at all
a f4.5 shot
f5.6
I'll take a DA21 shot....
then put on the F*300.... to study the fly on the face....
