I visited Waimanalo again yesterday morning and found a couple more Red-footed Boobies:http://wildlightphoto.com/birds/sulidae/rfbo02.html http://wildlightphoto.com/birds/sulidae/rfbo03.htmlMy previous experience with these birds at this location suggested that a lens as long as the 560mm lens wasn't required, and I wanted the benefit of an automatic diaphragm so I used the 280mm f/4 with 1.4x APO-Extender instead. Other technical stuff: R8/DMR, ISO 400, shoulder stock. All comments welcome.
Both great catches, Doug!But I must agree with the almost universal opinion that the second is the better of the two.
Thanks for sharing with us. :-) Questions... 1) are these full frame with the 280/4+1.4ex? 2) How is the little one doing? :-) Cheers! --- David Young, Logan Lake, CANADA Limited Edition Prints at: www.furnfeather.net Personal Web-site at: www.main.furnfeather.net ------ Unsubscribe or change to/from Digest Mode at: http://www.lrflex.furnfeather.net/ Archives are at: //www.freelists.org/archives/leicareflex/
