Very graphic shots. No 3 would be strengthened by trimming the right hand edge - the distant background adds nothing to the shot but competes for attention.

Excellent moon shot, very crisp.

No 1 might be a nice shot if it were to be darkened down.

No 2 is much better, but check out the background when you shoot. From a lower angle would it have been possible to have blue sky as the background? That would have been much more powerful.

Blue recedes and the flower would have been projected forwards. This would have increased the impact considerably.

How do you manual focus on the DA-L 55-300?

Turn the camera from AF to MF.

Glyn, there is a consolation to be faced by so many Daleks. Only about three of them, maybe four, have a line of sight to exterminate the photographer.

Piece of cake. A quick speech about how powerful photographers are and we're saved!

I found the English pages and it looks from the following that the 600mm f4 and some other interesting lenses are in fact stiull available:

It's reputed that some lens factories may have just one worker skilled in finishing certain esoteric lenses. When that worker is on holiday, then it just waits...

If you are looking for a new one, then just ask some suppliers for a quote.

I think we can guess it would be a Special Order.

It's time limited, but time is not the issue in this case. There should be no problem.
