Great picture! I just got back and you are correct the A-bay trees aren't there, but the sand barrier was there so they must have repaired it. I decided to leave the drone at home. Not permitted in ...

Thanks! Yes, wouldn't use in Volcanoes NP, although would be very cool. Was thinking more for some secluded fun beach shoreline or maybe out on the northern coastal valleys. I may just see how ...

Yeah, there would be some amazing aerial shots and Volcanoes NP would be super cool - I think you might be able to get a permit for national parks. But I can understand why they limit it after ...

Thanks! We do have a night snorkel booked - it is our last night before we leave since the company we are using was on vacation while we are there and that was the only day available. But I wanted ...

Thanks so much for the feedback!! I've been to Maui/ Oahu once. Hoping to make it to Kaui next time, but it will probably be a while :) You are probably right, not too big  of a deal to bring the ...

We made it up to the Grand Prismatic upper viewing just before sunset and had maybe 20 minutes with direct sunlight/colors - beautiful. I like your angle for that one as well! The one thing I ...

Great photos! We were there last summer and while I didn't see a grizzly, we got up at 4am for a ride up to Lamar Valley and a wolf just after sunrise. He trotted out on the road for a minute or ...

Hi all, I'm going to the Big Island for 10 days next month with my wife and 3 daughters (ages 5-11) - I had considered leaving my Z6 at home and just relying on my LG G8 for pictures and my GoPro ...

I'm happy with the 100-400 just thinking something with more reach for special occasions focusing on wildlife

Definitely a good option! I'm going to wait to see what the price and reviews are on the z 200-600 before making a decision :)

Thanks for sharing the pictures from the Sigma! I'm thinking I might wait and see how expensive the Z 200-600 is when it comes out and how the reviews are :) It has to be coming soon, right? It ...

Yeah, I'm sure that the Z 100-400 is amazing, but this one works for me for kids sports and definitely a big improvement over my 70-300 af-s :) Here's one at 400mm and a crop from the image, wide ...

I would love the 500 pf but its like $2800 more the a used Tamron :) I could justify it if I were to use it a lot, but it's not a lens I would use frequently with my current job and family ...

Thank you everyone for the feedback! Looking back at all my photos, I'd say wide open at 400mm it is just a tad softer than the rest of the range, but much better than my Nikon 70-300 at 300 wide ...

It looks like the firmware on the Tamron was already updated when I received it as it is focusing with my z6. But I have the tap-in, so might try to fine tune sometime. I took it out for some ...

Yes, it is used from B&H, I think it was around $620 (rated as a 9). I actually emailed them to see if they would update the firmware before sending, but they said they wouldn't do that... so I ...

Hi, yes, love seeing direct comparisons! That was the impression I got to regarding autofocus of each from reviews. I did watch one video on the Tamron where the guy (I forget who) said the Tamron ...

Good question, I hope I made the right choice :) It seems like some people like the Sigma, some like the Tamron, so I couldn't find a consistent theme that one was "better" than the other. So the ...

Outdoor soccer is tough, I get a good action shot but there is a garbage can or someone sitting in a lawn chair in the background lol

I hope so too, but the sony 200-600 is about $2k so I just assume it will be comparable, hopefully I am wrong, would love too see pricing closer to the Nikon 200-500 :)
