Someone let me borrow it, and I picked it up as well as a telephoto. I'd recommend the lens to anyone except not having a thread filter scares me a little since there is no protection against drops and scratches.
It's bigger and fatter than I would have thought, but works well.
Really helps getting a full kit - I can now hike around with 12 mm - 1000 mm ranges covered as well as a small macro lens.
Really digging IR - especially the panoramics in IR. I can see you had really good success there as well.
Hi Michael, yes, the lighting isvery difficult, but I think you did well, not overly overexposing the sky. I guess it took quite some rework reviving the dark parts? Love the veil created by the water, though. Where the water hits the rock the composite image is revealed, I think, but only if you look really well. Good work!
