That why I hate that tournament. Two lenses I don't own but would like town. How's a guys supposed to vote. Centersharp portrait telephoto vs. Edges to dye constant long lens performer. Sorry can't do it.

Its only for fun. Just like Fantasy leagues. There's no real money riding on those, right ?

I can't make an informed vote as I only own one of the lenses.

My latest acquisition vies with my tamron adaptamatic for cool, classy, glossy vintage looks and feel.



I took both 300's along to get a comparison. Little to choose between them, I thought, on my test shots of the castle. A redshank on the opposite bank gave me the opportunity to use both lenses. Even with 1.5 crop factor on my K-r these are 100% crops.

Tamron


Tamron edges it, but don't quote me on that, could be just inconsistent technique on my part..

I've been rearranging the feeders after two were taken down by bears, and we had an influx of mice caused by food from the feeders too close to the house... we aren't there yet, but we're getting there.
