[Leica] Male Rufous with new lens

[grduprey at mchsi.com (grduprey at mchsi.com)]

Hi Howard,

Nice capture, but maybe a bit soft.  I would have stopped the lens down one 
stop and get back the detail.  At first I could not understand why it had 
the grain/noise, but then saw the iso you had set, and this would also 
effect the max aperture if in low light.  The new 80 to 400 lens is getting 
some very nice reviews for sharp, clear images.  Love your Hummer photos.

Gene

Hi Luggers,
While in Vancouver last week helping Esther babysit Aubrey aka "Hank the 
Tank"
I managed to buy the new Nikon 80 - 400 AF VR zoom and this morning back on 
Pender
I have captured my first hummingbird picture with the lens - using the 1.7 
extender for an
effective focal length of 650 mm and a maximum aperture of f9.5.

Please look large.

C&C always welcome..

Howard
