Except for the heavy downpour that fogged up my lens. The fogged up lens is a fairly frequent problem here in Florida. even if it isn't actually raining the humidity can still be high enough to fog my lens. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I look at the back of the camera, think I nailed a great shot, I get home and upload it, and realize it’s just soft, or out of focus. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently not. I was using a converter with probably cause it. I was using manual focus too. I've learned by now just don't even try using the converter it isn't worth it. I was thinking it would be a perfect shot with the crab.☹️ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even my sigma 150-600mm f/6.3 doesn’t work well with one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zoroark Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 Like many of the shots in this thread, I had the shutter speed set way too slow on this osprey. It would've been incredible. https://ebird.org/checklist/S77908638 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
