    this is amazingly captured. the throw force cam out rally well here and i love that backdrop. Just the only wish is that it needs a bit CCW as the bg horizon is giving drop on right along with the gull's head down.

    Thanks for the comments folks,
    I am glad you are buying one Dumay, now i can use one to compare mine with:) cause i am still not happy with it, this is full frame so you cant see the fine detail, so i have to decide if I am going to keep it.
    Are you still up hoedspruit side of the world?

    Yeah mate...Loving it, cant believe it took so long for me to go live the dream. Pity mate thats a top class IQ lens. Comparable IQ to the 300 f4 you already have, its definitely as good. Where did you buy it bud?
