I got a new toy today (kind of, I don't have to pay until April) so decided to go out and test it. I'm really out of practice.

All but the last one were taken at Attenborough Nature Reserve in Nottingham. The last one was taken at Kedleston Hall in Derby.


 


That's my photography kit sorted now I think. Astronomy gear next!

Lovely crisp images. What camera body are you using?

It's nice spending money :)

Get that kit on a tracking mount and get some dslr widefield astroimaging done :) You won't need an OTA.

Everyones a winner Craig.


 


Great lens the 70-300, gives you that little extra reach.


 


Do you think it would take a 1.4 extender.

Craig your sig is wrong.

Your new lens is F4 - F5.6

Oh yeah :lol:

It should take an extender, not sure if I would lose AF though.

It will only lose AF if it goes beyond F8 I think
