After hearing people say the 180-600 isn't as good as the Sony 200-600 those look pretty fucking good.

I mean, It may not be, but I don't think the difference is enough that when you take real world shots; I'm very happy with it.

My girlfriend has the Sony lens and I can't tell the difference, but I think the Sony lens is the current gold standard.

So basically it's close enough to the point where it doesn't matter and you would only care if you look at MTF charts.

These are great. It's hard to pick the right aperture for flower photography, but you nailed it.

A few more from New York as I work my way through my photos.

Most taken with the 70-200 GMII.

I attempted my first moon alignment last night. I only have a 200mm lens, so I couldn't be too far away from my target. I was across the street and down the block from Union Station in Worcester, MA for this, on top of a parking garage.

It was impossible to get a single shot that exposed both the moon and the building properly so I bracketed the shot and made an HDR photo in Lightroom. I stopped down to f13 to get everything in focus. In hindsight that was probably overkill. But I had a tripod so I could expose for a second or more. But I did have to crop out the waving flags.

Thanks. Really fun city to take photos in as a beginner. Just so many cool looking locations that it feels like I barely have to try and I can still get som great shots that I'm proud of.
Heading back but to Okinawa in November for another 2,5 weeks, hope I can get some nice shots there as well. Thinking of buying myself something like the Sony 24-240mm for that trip since a 75mm prime is what I top out at right now and that wasn't always enough for what I wanted for some shots.
