[QUOTE="aroy, post: 297781, member: 16090"] The 70-300G is a pretty bad lense. I have one. At 300 it is way too soft and exhibits a lot of colour fringes. It has no focusing motor hence will not AF on 3xxx and 5xxx bodies. The zooms you have asked advice for are pretty slow at 300mm and will not be of much use, except in bright sunlight, as you will need to use it at f8 or more to get a sharp image. For wild life in medium light that will mean ISO 1600 or more. If you want 300mm, then get the 300mmF4 (the lense of this thread). New it is about $1200 and used you will get down to $600. This is one lense that gives sharp images wide open.
