I wish I had tried Graham's version when we were at Frampton to compare his lens against my 300mm.
Well I did! But I guess there is no comparison with a mere 12Mp D3 FX (Lovely brick size pixels! LOL).
I have just had a look, I have a few taken with Graham's lens, nothing spectacular but if you like I could post them, you might even have some shots of the same birds, taken with your combo.
Don't bother Robert. This lens is going back and at this stage knowing more about Grahams lens wouldn't change my mind.
Graham may be coming up to Norfolk in late September....so that would be an ideal time to try his lens. It could give me reassurance there are better versions out there....but I still need to decide if 400mm is the most I need. In some ways I was considering it as an interim lens till the 500 could be assessed.
