How I would love to have that rig for the race tracks.
Very nice photo.
Me too
Clix Pix you get the awesome bird shots... must have the patience of a saint!
I'm saving up for a weather-sealed 90-250mm f/2.8 that will give me an equivalent reach up to 1000mm with a 2x converter (4/3)... I'm only about $6 grand away from a surf photographer's wet dream!
Thanks, RaceTripper and srf4real!
Yep, the 300mm f/2.8 is one awesome lens, with or without a TC. I was surprised at how well it performs with the 2x TC, as often that can be problematic.
"Patience of a saint?" Naw.... This shot was taken right on a friend's front porch. The entire front yard is filled with bird feeders of all kinds, which attracts many feathered friends. This bluebird had been over near the bluebird house and I had almost given up on being able to get good shots of him from where I was positioned (there were other photographers and their rigs set up, too), and then suddenly the little rascal landed right in front of me and began posing! It was so funny! We all got some great shots of him!
