Happy Birthday Mark. Wish you all the best, with lots of lenses (superb quality, of course) and exceptional cameras (Sony, of course  ). Many happy returns my friend.

Hi everyone, what a great supprise this morning  Thank you all very much, I appreciate it! Dr. Harout wrote: Wish you all the best, with lots of lenses (superb quality, of course) Well Doc, I think the stars alligned today because this morning my loving girlfriend had a great present for me: a 70-300G  Now, that wasn't a big supprise as I asked for a contribution because I didn't know what else to ask and the lens is way too expensive as a present. So all the money I got from my selling other equipment went to her. I actually had enough for her to get me the lens as a gift. Pretty sweet isn't it! I'll be using it in stead of the 70-400G for shooting birds on holiday, as the 70-400G is a little bit big and heavy for traveling. I can honestly say my a-mount collection is almost how I want it to be. Only thing missing is a 35mm-ish fast prime. It wasn't over with the lens however. It was a pretty big supprise when she got another gift, which turned out to be a BlackRapid RS7 strap. I was very supprised at that. Great morning it was for me  I'm working at the moment but will give the lens a go this afternoon. Mark
