[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]I visited Waimanalo again yesterday morning and found a couple more Red-footed Boobies: http://wildlightphoto.com/birds/sulidae/rfbo02.html http://wildlightphoto.com/birds/sulidae/rfbo03.html My previous experience with these birds at this location suggested that a lens as long as the 560mm lens wasn't required, and I wanted the benefit of an automatic diaphragm so I used the 280mm f/4 with 1.4x APO-Extender instead. Other technical stuff: R8/DMR, ISO 400, shoulder stock. All comments welcome. Doug Herr Birdman of Kailua http://www.wildlightphoto.com
