Then my wife, Rose, offered to buy me one for Christmas! :) By late January, I had an early model, in virtually mint shape, in my hands.... but no chance to really try it out until last week. Whilst walking on the beach on Hornby Island, I spotted a Great Blue Heron, standing on a log, about 30 meters (100 feet) ahead. Using patience and stealth, I got within 20'. The result, a hand-held shot using the 400 and a 2x converter, can be seen by going to: http://www.horizon.bc.ca/~dnr and then clicking on "Featured Photo". Comments and criticisms appreciated, as always. Thanks for looking. David. - ---------- David Young |The LHSA Spring Shoot - Victoria, B.C. Victoria, |April 23 thru 25th, 2004.
