Originally posted by luftfluss Any thoughts on image quality comparison between the DA* 300/4 vs DFA 150-450?
It's been a while since I used the DFA 150-450 in anger, and for some time it's IQ was hampered by back focussing which I couldn't fix as the AF fine adjust was on the limit.
That has all been fixed now but I'm advised to avoid using it for a while longer until my shoulder improves a bit more.
What I can say is that the IQ of the DA* 300 f/4 is excellent, even wide open. I used to think that of the DFA 150-450 too, but right now I think the DA* 300 may have a slight edge.
Hopefully I'll be out and about after the birds again soon with the DFA 150-450 and the contest may hot up :-)
Cheers,
