Not too shabby, John. It's tough to ever get an owl, much less with a chick!

Yesterday, I spotted it on the nest I thought it might use, and came back today with my camera: http://www.flickr.com/photos/jb_sessoms/3396685627/ K10D, Sigma 300 2.8 + Sigma APO 1.4x tele-converter, on a tripod ... ISO 400 (I think) The image is a bit soft. I've noticed that whenever I use the 1.4x converter, even though it's supposed to be matched to the lens. It just kills me. Some guy came along with a Nikon D200 & 200 mm Nikon IS lens and chimping what he got looked a whole lot sharper than what I got. But ... it's what I got. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
