I can see why they make good ad photos, being all "Look at me!!! Look at me!!!"

But for everyday ride? Mate stick to the dark side. Things are better here.

yep, its the good old "you get what you pay for". When it costs $300 odd brand new, as opposed to being in the thousands... The cheap 75-300 are also too soft at 300, so I keep it at 200, and use the size of the shot instead.

Attached is a shot of Wiggles at Pukekohe, its a damn nice upgrade from the DSC-F717 I used to have

Great photos all round, especially the one of the beach just north at Okiwi. Spent many beautifull days on that particular beach. Imagine trying to land in a plane there today in this weather.
