Re: PESO: Nov 2013 Red-tail
Thanks, Bruce. As I mentioned in an earlier response, this hawk was in a tree that wasn't that tall and, being too close when they fly can be really frustrating in that they are easily lost by the AF. I cranked the focal length from 300mm to 120mm. (checked ARC) When I downloaded the images I was surprised by how small a hawk image I had. As a result, I did a serious crop to 'prox 20% of the original frame. I believe it held up surprisingly well considering. This is a quality lens belied by it's price. It simply needs to be longer. ;-) Jack - Original Message - From: Bruce To: Pentax-Discuss Mail List Cc: Sent: Thursday, November 14, 2013 10:57 AM Subject: Re: PESO: Nov 2013 Red-tail Great shot!

Thanks, Paul. He(?) dropped out of a tree just out of the frame and was so close I dialed back the lens from 300mm to give myself a chance to keep him in the finder.
