I'm not sure what happened and it probably was me, but has anyone had any experience in this combo for bird photography in flight? Most of my results were not in focus some very bad. I'm not sure if it was just the fact that the lens was slow to acquire the focus before I pressed the shutter or what. The birds were in flight and moving is was using aiservo in appature prioity in sunlight. I was however able to capture some shots but most were soft or out of focus. Any advise on your experience would be appreciated. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- - Forgot one more thing. Make sure your shutter speed is a minimum of 1/125 but for fgaster moving objects 1/250 with IS on and you should be OK. If you were using a film like Velvia and were shooting at 1/60 that would be the main reason for out of focus images. Use something like Provia 400F and you will have much better results.
