    First of all, this is an amazing lens; it is beautifully made and functions really well.
    Second, it is large; much larger than I expected. Please see the attached picture. The other lens is an Olympus 70-300 and it looks miniature.
    The picture of the tulip was in evening light and handheld. The detail looks great. The porcupine was taken with it eating in its den and I think the lens handled the low light well. The goat was an outside shot. All shots are handheld.
    I would really recommend this lens!
    As an addendum, my Manfrotto tripod would not smoothly mount to the lens foot. The Manfrotto plate has a lip that prevents the foot from lying flat. I purchased a Manfrotto Quick Release Plate with 1/4" Screw Quick Setup Kit for $12.50 and the problem is solved. Now the tripod and lens work together perfectly.
