nice shots , sharp , i also use old lenses from the film era , hand focus . at time you are better off using higher iso to use a higher speed , try hand held shots of flying birds .
Thanks agillot! I'm developing a small arsenal of these older lenses; they really teach me a lot. I'm not so good at hand-held shots with this lens, no matter how fast i make that shutter speed; this 400mm is a pretty good sized lens and i just can't seem to hold it steady off a tripod.
