I have always loved photographing people. I travel quite a bit and I sometimes find myself posting people on the street, if they agree to be photographed.

Do you fly out of Canada? I don't think there are any U.S. airlines that are allowed to fly there.
Very cool Owl!


I have never had to fly out of Canada. I think people think that Americans can't go to Cuba but this is absolutely NOT true. Last week I flew American Airlines from JFK to Havana, then Santa Cruz, Cuba to JFK.

The license my travel agents have is *For the people* Even when trump, changed the rules we still were able to go. The only difference that time is we had to fly in and out of Havana. One time I had a direct flight from JFK to Havana.

The owl was such a great find. We also went to 2 waterfalls, 2 different birding locations. One has flamingos. I am still working on images.

We went birding with 2 different guides. It was awesome to find a Cuban Pygmy Owl.

Nice shots! I was stationed in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba in the Navy. This was before the prison. No contact with the Cubans, there is a minefield between two razor wire fences. But great birds and great Diving! I would love to go back and see the civilian part of Cuba!


I have been there 5 times. I work with 2 Cuban Americans who own the travel agency. We stay in private homes and travel with a team of young guys with classic cars. We do not to anything with the government.

Let me know if you want to go!! I can arrange it.

I am still working on my images from my trip there last week. Here are some on my website.

Bee Hummingbird is the smallest hummer in the world. I was just in Cuba, my 5th, time. We did quite a bit of birding. We went to a private home, the owner makes his own feeders. It was an amazing experience.

BillNikon,

Do you even shoot with Sony or are you still using Nikons?
I was a Nikon Professional Services member for many years before switching to Sony.

As a Retired School Administrator, I would have expected you to be better prepared to have a discussion instead of calling me a liar and posting FAKE NEWS.

Are all your posted credentials FAKE NEWS?

This definitely is not true. The 100-400 is a GM (red badge) while the 200-600mm is a G (black badge). The GM is generally considered the professional line. However, Sony produces a number of very good G lenses. I am not telling which they are otherwise I might be banned from this site as well.


zug55, thanks for posting the difference between a GM and a G.

BillNikon,
Now who is telling lies!!!!

So you still haven't answered my question.
YOU are telling LIES!!!

A F4.5-5.6 is better glass than a f5.6-6.3.

Look, you cannot come on here and tell false claims. It is one of the major problems here. If your not sure of something, investigate it before you post.
The 100-400 has TWO focusing motors, the 200-600 has ONE. The 100-400 is supposed to focus slightly faster than the 200-600 because of this. But I have noticed no difference between the speed of focusing between these two lenses.
Here is the rub, someone who is considering both to purchase and reads your post may actually believe you. That is the problem.
Look, you cannot come on here and tell false claim... (show quote)


**The 100-400 is better glass and it is lighter weight than the 200-600. **

I did not tell any false claims. A F4.5-5.6 is better glass than a f5.6-6.3.

This is the problem with this site. Jerks like you are rude, nasty and just plain mean. If you disagreed with me you should have stated what you disagreed with, instead of being a stupid jerk and telling me it is FAKE NEWS.

I was stating my opinion, state your opinion instead of being such a jerk.

You never answered my question about the f stops in the 2 lenses.

That is an incorrect statement. The 100-400 DOES NOT have BETTER glass than the 200-600. This post should be taken down right away.
FAKE NEWS. You do not know what you are talking about.


I have always thought that a F4.5-5.6 is better glass than a f5.6-6.3.

Is this wrong?

BillNikon, you are very mean. If you disagreed with me, just tell me that and prove it. But to say I do not know what I am talking about and that it is FAKE NEWS is just a stupid, mean spirited thing to say.

I have had the Sony 100-400 F4.5-5.6 with a 1.4 tc for 4 years. I bought this for a trip to Kenya before the Sony 200-600 f5.6-6.3, came out. I looked into the 200-600.

The 100-400 is better glass and it is lighter weight than the 200-600. With the tc I get 560, which is perfect for me.
