Wow, there are a LOT of nice shots in there. I liked virtually all of

Thanks much, Darren!
I have to admit, I was pretty happy when I got home and popped
Shot a lot of things at f/1.7 and ISO 100 outdoors today, and my center focus

So... the Live-View/Not-Live-View focus adjustment method seems to work.
Well enough for me, anyways!
That being said... this is not the sharpest lens when used wide open. But it's

Thank you, Christine!
I was really happy to get that cardinal shot. I've struggled to get good

Thanks, Jack!
I'm taking a wild guess and assuming you meant to address me, here. ;)
That 70-300 collected dust for months -- I'd probably shot with it five
