Top notch - I think you can safely say it works!

Cheers Dave.I thought long and hard about getting this lens.I am still not sure if the quality will better the the 300AFS F4. Time will tell, I still have a fair bit to learn.One thing though, It`s built like a Tank !

Unusual viewpoint - excellent quality - stunning lens - bad back on the horizon - but you won't give this lens up!
