ellery 0 Posted August 26, 2012 My first hummingbird attempts. only lens I could use to suit the job was my 180mm macro lens (longest one I have...and set up near a feeder near a window at vacation cabin in Rangely Maine last week... Getting the focus down right with that slow ass focus motor was the hard part...figured out a pretty good work around to it thought and started to get more consistent results due to some fairly predictable patterns of movement....too much fun shooting these specimens....any critiques, thoughts, etc would be greatly appreciated!!

tamaramar 0 Posted October 9, 2012 Hi, Ellery! I love this shot! I understand your desire and I appreciate effort of those who take manual - like pictures of these beauties, but your picture is different - at it matters a lot! Wonderful quality, action and a well composed picture! You should be proud of yourself! Warm regards, Tamara Link to comment
