I guess I better start this off

Read Users reviews of this lens here

Exif:

Minimal sharpening, basic levels, and no noise reduction or colour enhancement.

270mm, f/5.6, 1/500 secs. Aperture priority. Slight saturation increase, basic levels + slight USM

300mm on tripod, 1/500, f/?, cropped about 65%

300mm, VERY slow shutter speed, ISO1600 definitely, lots of noise reduction! + sharpening.

ISO1600 70mm ish, widest aperture possible, NR + sharpening

150mm ish, very wide aperture, ISO1600, NR + sharpening.

More if requested

Can others add their images too crew?

This one has been processed a fair bit, but at least shows what can be captured with that in mind. Shot at 300mm
