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 Quote 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 Quote 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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

Zoroark Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
