I'd be interested in that article. ; I haven't had the courage to bring my big lens into the parks yet. ; The closest my 200-500 ever got was the hotel balcony.

They are used to seeing big lenses at AK. ; Used my 80-400 there without a problem. ; Don't think I would use it in any other park.

Hey let's throw that on my camera with the 1.6 crop factor and the 2x tele converter and see what we get.

with that combo I think you could get pics of the real PLUTO Jeff

Or at least the fleas on Pluto's back.

Bring the big lens. ; I can tell you that we got all kinds of comments on the lenses that we brought to Pixelmania! last year. ; It was a lot of fun to pick off the shots during the safari.
