> Just work on making them a bit sharper Do you have any suggestions on how? I think the focus was pretty accurate. I'm using a Velbon Sherpa pro CF630 and Manfrotto 486RC2. The legs on the tripod are not extracted fully. Mostly I shoot with a hand on top of the lens to minimise vibrations. I have experimented a bit with the remote unit, but I don't like the "rubber feeling" of the button. It makes my reflexes poorer not to _know_ if fires or not. Off course I can use faster shutter speed, but I believe the lens needs two steps down, and 1600 ISO will add more noise. What's the weak link, the man behind the tools?
I'm going on a bird shooting expedition with Jostein and some other experienced bird shooters soon, so I hope to pick up a few tricks from them. But until then ...
