David:
I bet the barefoot 400mm lens is sharper than the 800mm setup with the 2X converter. I try to avoid using the 2X if at all possible. Nice climber on the tree... and without spikes too!

So, there I was, a week ago, driving the Yellowhead highway, just east of Jasper, when I spotted a van parked by the side of the road.
I knew it had to be something interesting, for a father and his young son were on the roof, intently peering into the trees with both camera and binoculars. So I pulled over, grabbed my LeiCanon (with 400mm Telyt already mounted), and joined them.


Y'know, the good thing about digital is that you can crank up the ISO to 3200 in the blink of an eye. Just as well, too, for it was truly dark in them thar trees... despite being in the late afternoon.

What they were looking at can be seen by going to

Comments appreciated, as always.

Thanks for looking.

David.
