No , it is a 300 mm lens , no matter what. Your field of view changes depending which format of camera you put it on. The mm of the lens does not change or get cropped. The only thing that makes that lens cheaper is the fact that it does not have a constant aperture. It stops down as you zoom in . If you are someone who shoots in manual ( which most professionals do) it screws up your settings as you zoom in because it lets less light in and also changes your depth of field as you zoom. Very undesirable for pro photographers , but fine for the prosumer crowd ( a term invented by the Japanese to get people (usually parents) to spend more money on something that they will never learn to use properly ) The lens stopping down as you zoom in is usually not an issue for non photographers since they usually just have the camera on auto settings anyway and do not understand or care if the camera is totally slowing their shutter speed and/or upping the ISO significantly to compensate for the loss of light during zooming. It's why most soccer moms with expensive cameras take blurry grainy pictures.

You know , on this topic-there are things that you are allowed to do by law , but by doing so you join the ranks of "ignorant a$$holes" Buzzing a kids ball game with your quad qualifies. As does hovering your drone over a neighbor's yard . It is distracting , obnoxious , and ignorant by definition . But , perfectly legal. People in general use to care about not being an a$$hole and had respect for each others privacy. Now , not so much. Carry on.

Howard is not online , he is currently trying to repair his drone.

I singed Pete up , but there are no squads yet. Give me a heads up when there is and I 'll put him on your squad. Yes , I do these things for him.

There you go

Thanks George ! We're going to put together an Eddie Eagle for the kids real soon too. It was nice meeting you and your family

She was safe , paid attention to the stages , and was fun to shoot with. Love that kid

I was going to shoot my Colt , but it seems the mag release is all not working properly and stuff. You can't reinsert the mag unless you are holding it in. Strange , right?

Guess you dont go to NYC much. Or Boston .

I could probably get away with the whole standing under a fan thing.

But can you finish a yard without spilling?

It is IDPA at Easton this Sunday If it helps that another girl is going , you are both always welcome to meet me at Woodland Park Range or Easton .

Tis.

It will just be me..no sitter. Pat is borrowing my G19 , so...

What about something metal and heavier in 9mm , like a CZ? People with small hands like CZs. Of course it is DA/SA , and has a decocker , and the hammer is exposed. The PX4 Storm has really light recoil for a 9mm , what with its rotating barrel and all. But again , exposed hammer.If she wants to try a CZ or PX4 let me know and I'll meet you at the range one night.

This is Irishpete's BOSS lol I knew the Jets were going to die Monday night. Been a fan for too long , I can just tell these things. Did she find the recoil on the G19 too much?

Is .380 less recoil? I don't find it so.

I've been watching The Killing. It starts out really well..now into season 2 and in my opinion the twists and turns are too frequent , overused , whatever. I'll keep up with it though , because now I have to lol

The thermos..it keeps things hot , it keeps things cold. How does it know?

Sounds like the bear was demonstrating predatory behavior , odd for a Black Bear but sometimes their curiosity drives them to follow you. Walking or running away is the absolute worse thing this group could have done. Throw rocks , yell , posture , anything BUT moving away from them. I hike here all the time , and carry pepper spray. Would rather carry a firearm , but not in this great state. http://news.yahoo.com/jersey-man-attacked-killed-black-bear-police-134940693.html

It's a nice day out for sure. We'll be there , and Pat is entertaining making the ride.

My friend Pat is signed up , and we'll have Rosey too

You can draw appropriate pictures on it , then laugh without padding SL's pockets

No , there isn't . I buy 1000 foot roll of newspaper for about 20 bucks freight free off Amazon Prime for the snakes' substrate.
