I recently picked up the 70-300L on a trade and was intending to use it solely on my 6D. However, the more I read about it, the more I read people reporting that even when used on a crop sensor camera, there's resolution to spare. So I thought I'd pack my 70D and 70-300L and head off to Busch Gardens for a testing session. After dialing in the AFMA in situ, I started snapping pics. Here are a few that I liked.



Believe it or not, the shot of the Grey Crowned Crane was my favorite from the day. I think many people would immediately trash this picture because of the shadows from the palm fronds, but for me, it's what makes the image. It tells a story.
These have been cropped and downsized to 1920 on the long end. I did find that the reviewers were right. There is resolution to spare in the 70-300L and I'm ecstatic that I picked it up!
Thanks for looking!
True. I have shot pictures with this lens and even on extreme cropping the pictures were so sharp that I was blown away. I did not quite expect that sharpness, clarity for a crop after the picture was taken. So even though its 300mm practically you can get away with taking pictures and have a much longer reach. So don't hesitate to take pictures of distant objects even if they feel far far away. After you crop them you shall still come out with useful, sharp images.
