I just got a Takumar 70-200mm. I think I like it more that the 55-300mm. Better AF, and better micro-contrast, IMO. I shot this series on a Cape Cod beach. My wife playing with a friend's toddlers. The last one is taken with the kit lens.

Nice images!
The OOF looks very smooth indeed.

Is this an auto focus lens?

Thank you. Yes, it's an AF lens:

You're welcome--and thank you x 3

It's an excellent lens--just avoid using it against the Sun.
