Sorry I didn't realise that posting pics meant prima donnas would send messages telling me my effort were so poor I should delete them. Well I have and you know what my account can be deleted too, I'm not going to bother asking Admin to step in and report these people, I hardly ever used this...

Cheers for that, makes interesting reading and certainly another to add to the mix

Cheers for that, however I'm not going for the Nikon 500mm unless one comes up at sub £2k and then I'm not sure, hence asking about only the lens mentioned. Yep its my choice, I could have looked at the 300 f/4 but the reviews for that are far below IQ of the 2.8 so that is out of the door...

Sweet, I'll pay the asking price for a S/H 300 f2.8 and you pay the difference for the 500mm :) Otherwise I'll stick within my budget rather than spend silly money

Cheers for that OE, I'd already found that review, however I was more interested to know views between the 300 2.8 with use of different TC's against the new kid on the block the Sigma 150-600 Sport. I already have the Nikon 70-200vr 2.8 and use the 1.4 and 1.7 converters on that, but I still...

I have been wondering which lens option would be considered better, I'm after a longer reach lens for wildlife to use on my D810 body. I was looking to test and maybe buy the new Sigma 150-600 sport lens as its getting great reviews, however getting one to try and buy seems an issue, at lest...

Please tell me more as I'm also Norwich based and wouldn't mind coming to see what a CC is all about and maybe join if I think its for me

Sue, well done, picture looks great. As for the ANTI freebies brigade well all I have to say is I have more respect for you than them, job or no job photography is meant to be fun and occasionally doing a good turn for no benefit other than the feel good factor means more to me than worrying...

1). I told you that you need to back off the zoom, Objects in the lens appear closer than they are :) 2). Damn photographers think they know everything about shooting nature :)

Hi ya, fav choc, thats a hard one, today its gotta be Banana and Jamaican Rum (56%) in a light whipped milk choc centre, as I make everything with no added flavours, artificial colours etc everything is short-ish shelf life so I make new most days and change them regularly too so fav's only seem...

Cheers, actually hand making chocolates isn't hard work once you know what you're doing :) but what a life spending all day playing with melted chocolate and eating all I like (well eating my profits I guess :( )

Sorry week 5 slightly late, also not the best subject but these are as hard as I can eat, or was that used to be able to eat :) Need to really work on close up lighting as I know I'll have lots of sweets to photograph in the near future. C&C most welcome Sugared Almonds DSC_5575 by...

Lovely shot, I like it loads, also it brings back some great memories of when my father and I used to fish off it and under it. Thank you for sharing it

Nice take on the theme, dof is very good and the clarity of the ring is good, though a pity the numbers from the back of the page bleed through as that for me ruins the sudoku part of it
