Cory, Here's a photo with the DA60-250 at f4, 1/250 & ISO 800 straight out of the camera. It could be sharper if I wasn't waving the camera around in the car. http://photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=12108253 He's not really that close, but the 250mm x 1.5 ~375mm lens - mighty nice for soccer. Regards, Bob S.
