Time to get a 300mm (of course for distant subjects including wildlife photography)
Last year, I was so keen to buy a Tamron/ Sigma 70-300 DI LD with macro feature which was/ is the cheapest lens ever introduced. It would give me a good 300mm range as well as macro (not interested in macro that much). But then I went through the reviews only to find that since that's a low cost lens, the lens does not compliments either low lights or steady frame at full length. I wasn't even satisfied by the photograph quality from them. I wanted to go for a decent one (not going far than my budget)
After much research over the last couple of months, I have shortlisted two 300mm lenses to chose any one (can't afford beyond this). My research material is all based upon technical details, build, quality, price etc. However, I couldn't find much of the review from them who already used it for a year or so. I feel, new bride always looks prettier than ever. So, I would like to know if your relation to any of these lenses have been for some time more than soon, I could get some real photography review (on motor noise, AF speed, Manual focus, sharpness, frindgeness, handling, etc.).
Thanks.
