Long Lens Landscape - view large on full screen.
Lets you select a limited area well inside a wider frame. This is a 300mm prime on a x1.6 crop body so the field of view is around 480mm without the apparent added closeness that a near-500 would produce on a FF body. This used lens is certainly sharp enough if held sufficiently steady. It really needs a decent workout - had started out yesterday looking for waxwings that are being pictured around berry-rich trees. So far the score = 0, must try harder. Location tips extremely welcome... please? Ta.
