:) This morning i had a trip to Scunthorpe to shot some ladies football & to meet up with fellow member Mark Hodsman who kindly allowed me to use his Canon 300 2.8 many thanks Mark :D it took a bit of getting used to kept wanting to zoom ;) when you first changed to Primes how long did it take to get used to it ?

Stonking stuff....thats some lens you used there mate! What do you think of the quality Steve? I think they are different to the Sigma not necessarily better or worse. But as we discussed I think the 300mm f2.8nonIS seems designed for an age of film rather than the super saturated lens of today. Perhaps (more than likely Im talking bollix).
Do you still think its worth £25.00? Nice to meet up with you Steve.

Steve BTW we all thought we were the victim of an April fools hoax as someone rung the gaffer to say that Doncaster Parklands had turned up at 1.15pm. I dontknow if someone bothered to checkup....

[DarrenL]

pretty decent set there Steve.

#6 is my favourite. Mark did you make a typo? Is it worth £25.00!! hell yeah, £2500 well, I can't afford that :D

i will give ya 25 quid for it Mark :lol: ho well never mind about the afternoon game at least i got home intime to watch the Rovers win the Cup :D. I think the image quality is great m8 would need a bit of time to get used to shooting with a prime tho i think its a different mind set to using a zoom i think you really would need 2 bodies tho one with a 70-200 to catch the near shots, as u say the saturation does look different to the Sigma.

Regards
Steve.

[gkwood]

Steve great shots love the crisp colours and sharpness , the 300 2.8 is a great lens , you mean to say mark never let you keep it he he :)

[jim9449]

Well done Steve, I'm sure you are delighted with your first attempt, I agree when used to a zoom a prime is hard to get used to:(

Steve,

Lovely set there mate - in the interests of your bank account however I will say that I can't see any difference between the Canon and the Sigma though!!

#7 is the pick of the lot for me, however I think they're all superb!

Nice one!
