while I was out shooting the sunset, this Northern harrier tracked across the field:

but the reason I was out, on my knees in the west field, was the sunset:

thank you - I was a bit surprised, too; normally, they are scarce until spring... I'm wondering if the late-fall temperatures convinced them to stick around too long...

yep - I pored over the reviews here and elsewhere, raided flickr for any and all shots taken with it, researched the seller down to the *nth degree, etc...

I just haven't seen that much of it in this thread, where the experience is...

quick question, especially since I already bought it:

any thoughts/opinions/experience with a Tokina AT-X SD 150-500mm f5.6?

out with the bison today - unfortunately, they spent most of the day in tall grass:

we've finally hit on what the orioles like (grape jam and orange marmalade), so now we have about eight or ten carousing the backyard.... so I set up the tripod...

with the K300/4:

I finally took the plunge and bought a long prime, just to see what I could do with it... it arrived today, so took it out and shot a bit:


it's hay season here - this tractor was a bit under a half mile away in the field..

both handheld shots and it was bright out, so had to bring the contrast back in post.... but I am very happy with this lense's abilities..

I have a tripod collar on the way for it, so will be looking forward to some lunar shots soon...

I purchased an SMC K 300mm f/4 lense, and while it isn't here yet, one of the common remarks is a lack of tripod collar...

any suggestions on one? I've read that a 65mm (or is it 72mm?) collar will work, but want to verify...

thank you - I've read similar statements along the way and didn't see too many reflexes being used in this thread, either....

any suggestions/pros/cons on mirror or reflex lenses ?

I see that they have the reach and can be considerably cheaper than comparable prime/zooms....
