I have taken my summer holiday very literally this year. Usually tied to a fickle and at this time of the year frustrating retail roster, I am a free agent this month, enjoying a mild Tasmanian summer.
This has meant little or no photography, which is a little odd as my gear stocks have rarely been deeper or more exciting.
I took the 300 for a quick spin today after I realised that a couple of Rosellas were directly above me in our plum trees.
A 50% crop from an EM10 mk2 image, this 300mm lens is a winner and so is Capture 1 used to process the file. This is relatively heavily processed, but I got there easily and cleanly.
The original.
Still impressed by the strength and surety of the controls as well as their variety, but still a long way to go before I can call myself proficient.
