I use my 75-300mm for longer reach; not quite as good as the 40-150mm but again lighter and smaller

in fact - the 75-300, in the range of 75-150 is quite amazingly sharp. it is afterwards that it loses quality. of course - it's not on the same league as the 40-150 anywhere along the line, BUT, up to 150, the 75-300 is surprisingly good for a consumer lens.

But then you can use the cheap 40-150/4-5.6. It is also very sharp up to 150mm
