This appears to be a finch, and I shot it with the D FA 150-450 and the A2X S converter. Like the other pic I posted it’s f8, 1/320th and about ISO 28,00
http://photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=18307583&size=lg For this one I put on the DA 1.4 AF converter and slowed the shutter speed down to 1/80th, I was able to get the ISO down to about 1500. (The bird, a Junko, was also in better light.) http://photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=18307586&size=lg The much slower shutter speed works fine if the bird down’t move, but if he takes off I’ll lose what might be a good shot. Tons of fun in the backyard.I shot the pics sitting in a lawn chair with the camera on a tripod. I think sitting s a plus because it minimizes my size.
