RE: Which Would You Choose?

The 2.8 version will be useful when you need more focal length as it allows you to use it together with the extenders.

RE: Attn: Anyone Who Spots In AMS/Rome/ATH!

Spotting in Athens is kind of difficult without a rental car. I strongly recommend to book a side trip to Corfu on one of the "charter-days" which should be relatively cheap with Olympic or Aegean.

RE: Getting To Belvédère In BSL Without Car

There is no footpath but traffic on "Rue de l'Aeroport" is slow, so no need for it. When I was there in November last year it was absolutely no problem to walk all way to the spotting location.

Hi,

you can get there by walking from the terminal which will take you about 20 minutes.

Jaggies do not only appear after oversharpening, they also show up after resizing. With the image files getting larger and larger I strongly recommend to resize a picture in steps of 500px.
