The biggest problem I had was shooting into the setting Sun on these last 4 and the water splash creating havoc with the auto focus. :dunno

    Congrats with you new glass. Judging on the results; you must be one happy camper right now.
    Nice shots!

    The 300mm f/4 remains one of my favorite lenses.

    The whites are a tad hot on the images.

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"

    Love the 300mm F4, works great with the 1.4x as well.
