Hi ya' Ken, :D Yes, ya' gotta love ladybugs. Nature's little aphid eaters. We can buy buy boxes full of ladybugs at our local nurseries to turn loose on our roses. :D Was this ladybug wet with dew or is that just a really shiny spot on the back :?: I must say, you're getting a lot of good use from t...

Hi ya' Rik, :D I really don't know about "phase shifts" and "stroke". Hovering is the only way I could have gotten these images. It is just too darned hard to follow a moving dragonfly with, and manually focus, what is basically a 600mm f 5.6 lens. I tried a few times. These buggers just move too da...

Hi ya' Gunn :!: :D You've been away too long. Welcome back :!: :D I see you're on an equipment-rampage-phase at the moment. I finally got to where I own my own a$$ and have a reliable vehicle to go out of town. I decided I wanted to do some bird and big game photography. What have I done so far with...

Got my new Canon EOS 1Ds MkII today... :)
:D :D Not really :!: :!: :D :D I was just teasing with Sue. :!: :D :D She wants on sooooo bad :!: :D :D Actually, I received a Canon EOS 20D, today, to replace the Canon EOS Rebel XT (with which I've been having problems :( ). The EOS 20D is a lot better camera than the Rebel XT. If you are at all s...

Hi ya' Rik, :D Have you ever seen a snake fly? Uh, actually, I have... In college I was helping out with a capture/recapture study on western diamondback rattlesnakes. We would capture the rattlesnake and mark it with a numbering system. My friend, Steve Wylie, was holding the business end of a ratt...

One thing I should add to this topic, you can't expect stacked teleconverters to work this well on every image. Using stacked teleconverters is a last resort method. Like I stated earlier, everything has to be perfect to get good images using stacked teleconverters. I made about 200 images of birds,...

Hi ya' Doug, :D Can you use the 1.4x and 2x tc's with the 70-300mm zoom? I know you stated the IS would not work. I wouldn't even attempt to stack teleconverters on this lens. 1) Although the 70-300mm IS lens is sharp for a consumer grade lens, very close to some L zoom lenses, this lens isn't nearl...
