Title: BG with the AF-S 500mm f/4G today
Post by: atpaula on December 10, 2018, 01:54:19

It's heavy but I like to use it.
I'd like to see a comparison with the 500mm f/5.6 PF.
Thank you for looking.

Beautiful capture of the transmitted light of the leaves.  The composition looks nice, too!

Thank you guys.
I forgot to say that I used a cpl-1l filter in the lens, but I think there was no visible effect in these shots.

… no visible effect in these shots.

I'll have to disagree with that statement…

Though a CP may have very negative effects through a wide
angle lens. It has only one drawback when used on a long lens:
may impair the full, proper performance of the AF system.

Otherwise, it is all beneficial in terms of colour.

I meant no significant effect. Unfortunatelly I didn't rotate the filter in these shots like I did in the shots below.
Thank you for the comment.
