Had quite a few more but my HDD gave up on me and they weren't uploaded on flickr either.

The lens is fine if you are capturing stills but for moving objects its a pain without autofocus

Those looks pretty fine without Low pass filter i guess there will be bit more Sharpness and lil post can do great with it but yeah with moving object it will be hard to do the job so i will go with AFS i saw ur post you had no idea at the time you purchased it thats why i tagged you to get the info about it

D5300 have same processor, it produces nice images even in higher ISO. my opinion would be to go with 55-200 as they always say: Always invest in good glass

Sigma 70-300 DG macro has no VR which is very important for hand held shots for telephoto. and the performance of DG macro and DG APO pass 200mm are very low. if you check online ppl dont even consider them a real 300mm.
so far the best budget lens is 55-200mm VR Nikkor, it depends on your work what focal length you need,70-300 Nikkor Vr performs very good, but in performance it is virtually the same as 55-200VR,but expensive.

for details you can check DXoMark, thy have these lenses you can select your camera body and check the sharpness level on different focal lengths, and f stops.

if you are looking for good telephoto I will say check Nikon 1 series. for DX body good telephotos are very expensive.

    Consoles were my main platform ever since Atari 2500. But now I think it's not worth it as PC especially with DLSS deliver far smoother performance. AW2 on console didn't even had ray tracing and ran below 30fps. Similar issues plagues DD2 on consoled.

    The cross gen era really made people think 60fps would be a new standard lol

    Welp, done with Hellblade 2. Thoroughly disappointed. Such a nothing burger after the unique experience of the first game.

    I have a PS5 but I am not satisfied with the experience. I am currently saving for a 4080 64 GB rig soon. Bit will wait for Pro if performance improves. This gen has been so bad I don't plan on buying consoles anymore for AAA gaming.

    As per WCCF Tech review, Xbox Series X doesn't even maintain a consistent FPS and sometimes drops into the mid-20fps range. That's unacceptable, tbh.

    Score 1 for game pass. I wouldn't pay full price for this at retail either.

    Just downloaded my first legit digital PC game on GoG at a discount of $8: Two Point Hospital. The same team behind Theme Hospital Two Point Studios now part of Sega. And I am having more fun than most recent AAA games except of course BG3.

    Still, I don't like either Sony or Microsoft as they are focusing more on corporate greed than delighting customers. PC gaming is best of gaming and worth every penny.

    PC Gamer score of 58/100 for Hellblade 2??? Is it really worse than Gollum that was 64/100? Microsoft games can't even come close to high scores of Sony exclusives apparently.

    About the Microsoft (and Sony) debate, I feel both have become too greedy and losing their minds over corporate greed. Personally, I will never buy any console next gen and switch to PC gaming where democracy reins.
