This is the reason I never post any comments.
A high percentage of people are generous with their contributions but displays like this is cause for concern bordering on childlessness.

My two cents.

Wood Duck again

To be frank, I don't know how to navigate very well and it took me some time to figure out how to put it here.

Your more than welcome. I don't believe there is a more multi colored duck on earth, but I'm not a birder.

Wood Duck

This guy was extremely illusive.

Finally captured him with a 300mm /W 1.4 extender, ISO 1000 @ F/13

70-200mm f/2.8 vs 70-200mm f/2.8 IS

Ah, that was terrific and well written.

As you must be aware, my bigger lenses are IS (thank God ) and I've learned if I don't go over the capabilities of my equipment factoring in ISO, F stops, etc. I can get fairly good results.

If you wish, you can Email me and I would be glad to send you a little collage of my pic's.

I'm not very good at traversing on this type of site / Facebook, etc. so please excuse me if this sending is improper.

The people that know me can vouch for my statement,

I hand hold all my lenses up to the 800mm. (I use a lot of ISO)

Ooops, further clarification......... Never was disappointed with the lens........on me, many occasions.

As far as hand holding lens, I get a much better % of capture of diving eagles or alike grabbing fish out of the water than I would using a tripod.

Enjoyed your humor.

The attached was shot with the 70-200 f/2.8 non IS. hand held.

I've shot thousands of pictures from wildlife to as shown, day or night with this lens and never been disappointed. ( always hand held )

Save you money...........

Little Green Heron in the Bush

A few shore plants, and this little Green Heron thought he was successfully camouflaged.

Tough shot, well done.

Just to let you know, I was chastised for putting my picture in as you just did. Apparently, it's "bad form" which consequently, I will no longer associate myself with this website.

I felt this website was to help people, share and discuss different topics for the good of everyone belonging.

Apparently, I was wrong and will terminate my membership.

BTW, I've really enjoyed your input on many occasions,

Rick
