I don't use per say but I do sell. IMO, you're not going to find a good quality 70-300 lens new for that much...

The rule of thirds will help make your pictures a little more interesting and more composed looking.

Good looking car though!

drop it like it's hot

loose a coil off the front, leave the rear alone, that's how they shoulda come stock

clean ride though, lots of potential there

i RARELY use my 55-200mm lens.. i usually stick with the 18-55mm because the aperture on the zoom lens is hella small.

and photoshop HDR fails ( or at least i fail at it:-P) i use a program called Dynamic Photo HDR

UBER easy to use.. heres a you tube video on it
