I'm embarrassed to admit it but it has been years since I used the A* 400 f2.8. It just sits in a corner of my office in a Domke long lens bag. I'm transferring old film scans off CD's (a laborious task) and in doing that took a look at my old bird photos - both the keepers and the rejects. It does give me a hankering to shoot some feeder birds at least with it. Mark On 11/24/2011 8:20 AM, Bill Sawyer wrote: > Very nice, Mark.
