hi
here are some photos that i have taken over the weekend with my Pentacon
300mm f4 (i never had a chance to see the performance of the lens above f5.6 because is very heavy . so i used my tripod as a monopod and i was amazed by the results )

here they are






they are not crops. all of them are (100%) shoot from my balcony. it was a bit hard because of the light was coming from behind the subject

hope you like them

an one question _can the tair 300 (photo sniper) be more sharper than this (the Pentacon) ? i have a chance to buy it but i don't want to spend the money if it's not better
Thanks

Hello arhi_tectu-1.
I like your pics. Very Happy

About the Tair 300, I received my Tair-3A a few days ago and gave it a try. This is not a Sniper model, this is an old black Brussel grand Prix. Wide open (under f4.5) it is soft. But over 5.6, well i was very pleased.


Here are some samples :
Please, notice that they were all shot handheld and that it is quite heavy... Shocked




2 pics from a test i made to compare long lenses solutions (200mm+extender, 200mm, 300mm+ext, 300mm, 400mm+ext, 400mm.



Butterfly beauty




some flowers to finish

Two surprises in one thread. I would be hard pushed to choose between them.

thanks for the samples Olivier i really like the ones withe butterfly
great color and everything Very Happy
seeing them i think i would buy the kit (it comes with a zenit camera a helios 44 i think the tair 300 a "pistol" for holding the lens and the camera some filters and a case ) all of them for 120 euros so i think is a good price

thanks again for the samples Olivier

You're welcome !

I stress that this is a 3A model, not a 3S.
I hope the 3S is almost as good as this one.

120€ seem to be a good price for all that you have for the price.
Here is the kit I got for 85 US$ :
