Thanks for the explanation Wim...never did get the chance to buy you dinner and I've retired now (and emigrated to France).

I was about to ask, when I spotted your new location, but thought it better to do b/c. Congrats!

Incidentally, I use a 500D with the 300/4 and think it's a very usable setup. Initially, I sold my 300/4 when I got the 300/2.8 but then realised what I was missing in the portability and close focussing stakes....so had to replace it again.

Hence the two 300Ls in your line-up .

I've been replacing, and getting rid off quite some stuff myself.

Kind regards, Wim

EOS R & EOS 5 (analog) with a gaggle of primes & 3 zooms, OM-D E-M1 Mk II & Pen-F with 10 primes, 6 zooms, 3 Metabones adapters/speedboosters, and an accessory plague

approximate distance from the end of the lens to the subject at 1:1 magnification for each lens?
Thanks in advance.

Hi. I have not updated in couple years for Tamron 90mm or newer Tamron 60mm f/2.0, but this is my take on WD:
