aa thats cropped to 50% anymore and it gets to noisy.
I am going to Leederville camera shop tomorrow morning to buy the Sony 70-300mm f/4-5.5.6 SSM G (SAL-70300G) finally talked myself into buying it, good price to! a few hundred dollars cheaper then other places including overseas.Been reading up on it and people with the kit 75/300 like I'm using now swear its heaps better with the color, autofocussing a lot quieter and better all round,will soon find out.
