That's a good lens.

"tongue" serie? because there are 2 photos with animals showing tongue? i'm not sure,i'd have to check the photos from that day, but i know i have more tongue photos of these two here. bigger bear was being fed by visitors at the time i took shots of him, and small one was licking himself

I'm going to make a promise to add some pictures to this topic, maybe not as good as WolverineX has posted, but this lens is obviously far too good to leave unused. _________________ LENSES & CAMERAS FOR SALE.....
I have loads of stuff that I have to get rid of, if you see me commenting about something I have got and you want one, ask me.

thanx
only thing about this lens is that you have to get used to different focusing system, which is especially weird to use in portrait orientation _________________ my tools:Oly E-M5 + 45mm/1.8 + Oly E-520 + 12-60 + 14-42 + 70-300 + Sigma 105mm + FL-50R + EC20 + SRF-11 ring flash

I was really impressed with my first shots with my 3-PhS on my Oly E3. They very well saturated straight from the camera. No PP necessary and I usually find MF tele lenses require a contrast boost when used with the E3. I did use a very long hood though - the original rubber hood screwed onto the end of another straight metal hood. Also, it is sharp and remarkably free from colour fringing. A gem of a lens.

Actually, I really like the focus control but then I did use a monopod. I can imaging it would be quite tricky just handheld. I am also considering making a right angle bracket so that I can have the focus knob on the side, which I think would be even more convenient.

Mine is the 'standard lens' - not the photosniper, so it's a normal lens to use.

i usually do just a little levels and contrast adjustments. on that day it was cloudy

That's as impressive as the formers.
That Oly EM-5 is a very good camera and the Taïr-3 PhS shines on it. _________________ Olivier - Moderator

Eerything in this series is almost perfect. I can not belive tha price range this lens is at this moment. It's an scandal for a glass of this quality which can render this results.
Congrats, very well done - the one I prefer is the first, with the monkey,

I love this lens. I just wish the NEX was more suited, ergonomically, to using it. As it is, I keep an old 2002 EOS D60 around for the long lenses. It is also light in comparison to my other beloved 300mm, the Pentacon 300/4. The focus system on the Photosniper version is awesome. All long lenses should use it, although I would prefer the rack to be metal. _________________ Too many to list. |

I love this lens but I need to get a case for it, it takes up too much room if I squeeze it into my camera backpack. _________________ Gary

improvement of my skills as photographer is inevitable with every new photo i take and E-M5 is certainly a big improvement over E-520 i did first series with _________________ my tools:Oly E-M5 + 45mm/1.8 + Oly E-520 + 12-60 + 14-42 + 70-300 + Sigma 105mm + FL-50R + EC20 + SRF-11 ring flash
