I like it too James and I will try something similar with a Tokina M42 400mm 5.6 RMC tele (non mirror) I got yesterday and the Pentax AF400FTZ on the SFXn and film today as testfor the lens . I tried to get some closeups of raven yesterday taking a bath in the swimming-bath here with a 70-300mm zoom but they are either too clever for me or the tele range must be much longer ;-)
