So I've been wielding the DA* 300mm F4, I think it's safe to say, this lens performs just fine! If anything I've been underutilizing it in lieu of the Olympus 100-400.

Quote from grover on August 21, 2023, 9:16 pmJust a few shots from Clear Lake Manitoba Canada. I visit family there every year. Nothing spectacular but just trying to capture the mood in the area... which is to say "lightly populated, flat, and rugged Canadian landscape during a horrendous fire season" 😉

Quote from SpruceBruce on August 22, 2023, 3:48 pmLove the look you made with the clone trooper! That's surreal, it looks realistic! You could say it's a cosplayer and I'd wouldn't even second guess it.

thanks, it's all 1/12 scale. i try to keep the scale the same for all of my figs to make it easy to swap out accessories/dio pieces. the trick is to get low and shoot up at the figure's face. i had this in a large, low plastic bin like what you'd use under a bed. i filled it with sand in the basement and use it for desert scenes.
