[QUOTE="Elliot87, post: 550298, member: 25183"] Sounds like something called focus breathing. I don't know much about it but as Wayne mentioned at close focusing distances the lens may not be true 300mm but at greater distances it may well be. I heard about this watching Tony Northrup videos on youtube, he found the latest Nikkor 70-200mm 2.8 did not give the same tight head shot portraits as the equivalent Canon lens. I think this is the video he talks about it [URL]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jva08HY6uLE[/URL] Thanks for the heads up about this lens though, I'd thought about it for my wife but that would put me off.
