Maybe you should try the IBIS of the OMD in combination with the 300 FL?It is sharp at 300mm but the IS is having a hard time at that FL. I suspect reports of softness at 300 are caused by camera movement rather than any lens deterioration.
Very good examples of how useful this lens can be and also what a great performer - the compression effect at that distance can also create quite dramatic images. Well done.These are shot mostly with 100-300 - CrossFit Regionals North East 2012. I did not know what will be happening during competition so got myself 100-300, just in case. Turned out to be a good call. On one hand anyone could stand really close to athletes, on the other hand it was very crowded. So I shot most of those from across the field with gh2. Nobody else did it this way, so no elbow fights and view was unique
Welcome to the forum and a great start, Dan !New to these forums and this is my first post. Nice place you have here.
I've had the 100-300mm for a few months now and it's probably the lens that I have the most fun with. Despite what a few people say, I think this lens is incredibly good -- especially when you consider the price. Here's a few shots I've taken. All were taken with a monopod with the exception of the moon shot, it was taken with a tripod.
I think so too, Jim :salute:While walking on the beach. Not as sharp as I would like at 100% (and this one is cropped) but still I think it looks good.
