We were promised sun yesterday afternoon and this morning. Nothing. Gray, flat, overcast, cold, damp. Bleah. Next chance is next weekend. This has been one of the cloudiest winters I can recall in some time.

Nice shots!
Thanks Tim the 300 is the only option and the 2.8 end is not the sweet spot its around f4 but even at 2.8 the limit on iso set 12800, on most days it flashing way beyond that, dull and rain here for weeks now :)
 
Nice shots! Are you using the A-mount 300mm with adapter on your A7iii ?
