Day 2
It's been a bit of a revelation this lens.
1. I miss catch in focus
2. The preset manual/auto button is sticky. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. Which means sometimes even when I have it at f22 it still overexposes, because it will click at wide open. Drove me crazy.
3. Every once in a while I can't seem to get this lens to focus to infinity.
But when you get the focus, and the exposure is right and the stars all align.... you get super sharp images. And the bokeh is something else.
Can't really complain about that.

COLTON: If we can get him, we'd have Cobra's Number Six.
FALCON: Yeah, but if we screw this up, they'll have Joes Number One.
I think this is a Heron. Not really sure but im goin with that anyway. Got quite lucky with this one. I don't really know what im supposed to do - settings wise - for getting photos of birds in flight. Any tips would be appreciated because the wings came out blurry in most of my other shots. I put it on the sports setting so I could follow the flight of the birds while keeping focus but im not to sure about ISO speeds as ive only ever had a cheap digital camera before.
