It was one of the few sunny days we’ve had lately. I got a few shots I can use. Saw a lot of deer, turkeys, and eagles.

I think that is about what I paid. It isn’t a bad lens, but it isnt a great lens. It is fun to play around with, but like Elsinore said you will need a tripod or lots of light to get good shots.

That’s what I thought. I used the 75.0 – 300.0mm lens at 75mm. ISO 100, f/4.0 with a 4 second shutter. No cropping or post adjusting other than converting RAW to jpeg. They shot off a few that would go off in different directions as they got bigger.
