docholiday Posted October 9, 2011 Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 Finished for the day and just packing up when this egret landed across the harbour from me, problem was i was shooting into the sun with water reflecting the light and a white bird, doesnt get much more difficult, think it worked out ok cheers doc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

docholiday Posted October 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 Nice one Doc you have done well in that lighting. How you finding the len's. GG Lens is awesome for clarity and focus just a tad heavy if you have a lot of walking to do, difficult with a 1.4 tc doing Birds in Flight, but I love a challenge :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GREENGRASS Posted October 10, 2011 Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 You will have to let me know when it does get to much for you and I will take it of your hands. I do still like the Canon 500 f4 just waiting for the right deal. Also in mind Sigma 300 x 800 just got to make sure you get a good one as Sigma can be hit and miss. All the best GG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
