Cheers Gramps, listening to the staff it appears that Pixel tried it on with the Boss(Victor) and got a little slap but as the wound was healing Pixel accidentally opened it up again this morning.Nice set ... what happened to the bear, attacked by the grumpy tiger?
300 f4 is a very nice lens.

Were these taken today? Victor was off show yesterday after Pixel took a lump out of him from what I heard.
From looking at your other pix, I think they may have been yesterday and I was standing rather close to where you took some of the Baboons

Next test will be with the 1.4tc but wide open its super sharp. Compared to my Sigma 100-300mm f/4 they are miles apart. Living so close I know where my free time might dissappear.Cool

She was using that combination and found it perfect with regards to weight and image quality. Also, equally happy on her crop and full frame cameras too.

I was using it on my D300 and only found on a few occasions the tc would have helped, my combination when fully tooled up will be D300/300mmf/4 and D3/70-200mm f/2.8

It appears to be their favourite spot soaking up the morning sun.
Went back again to try the 300mm with a Sigma x1.4 tc

Finally spotted one of the very shy Rhinos being tempted out with snacks.

Still not seen them properly myself
- the second shot would be a cracker if there was no fence in view! Looking forward to warmer weather to tempt them further away from their accommodation.

Thanks, usually head for the pups first but as the pathway is closed off for the Lemur area work I headed towards the Lions first. There is a wooden shed/shelter at the edge that would offer a cleaner background if they venture that far out. One shot back in when more people turned up but soon came out again. It was a quiet Saturday morning for all except for these and the polar bears were very playful in the water.
