The bottom line is the delivery company is 100% responsible. They didn’t deliver to the address on the label, per their gps.
You’re not required to go searching where they delivered it to.
I ordered a computer from Costco one time and FedEx delivered to the wrong address one time.
I called FedEx and they said the driver told them he left it at the yellow house. I was inside of a commercial building that was not yellow. I told the lady on the phone I would go try to find it. She told me no that’s not my responsibility. She told me the driver left of it and address other than the label and they are responsible for it.

Don’t accept anything less. It’s not the sellers fault. Although he should have insured it. Claiming it with your credit card is a good option but you need to demand the shipper Take responsibility.

USAA is the cheapest if you can use it otherwise State Farm is the second cheapest.
I’ve got $29,000 of replacement cost for about $270 a year. No questions asked. They pay what I listed it for. I added expensive filters and extra batteries as well as tripod and camera bag. It’s all covered as long as your not a pro.

State Farm does the same but it’s a little more expensive.
Home owners policies in Florida are a joke and most won’t add a rider.

This lens is really a piece of crap and should be flushed down the toilet.
Read the reviews from consumers and expert reviewers. It’s just a cheap piece of Chinese knockoff crap.
To answer your question it does have autofocus and it doesn’t work like Zeiss. It doesn’t even work at all

I’m going to take a different approach. Try Greenville. It’s about 2 hours from Bangor.
I went there specifically looking to photograph moose and found many.
We took a tour guide the first day. I saw where he took us and it’s basically just local roads that are a lot of logging roads. We stayed a week and every morning I was on the road at 4am driving those roads until about 11 am. Saw lots of moose. Once my wife started seeing my pictures she started getting up and went with me.
Basically follow Main Street to lily bay road and stay to the right side of the lake. You’ll see many logging roads. Take any of them.
Also saw a lot of foxes.
Of course all the other places mentioned are great also. I just prefer wildlife also.

I love the Everglades at night and all the superb colors dancing in the sky.
This night I could hear a panther screaming for about 15 minutes but we never got to see it. I spent hours just looking night after night but no luck

Here he goes across the swamp from one side to the other.

I was luckily able to get these shots from my drone. Unfortunately the drone wouldn’t hold steady like it usually does. It just kept swaying from side to side. Also I had to use a long zoom to keep pretty far away so not to disturb the bird.

Peak Design has always worked wonders for me.
I’m seriously looking at these Eddycam.
I do prefer something different/unique than when the option presents itself.

Floridas heat and humidity is miserable. It seems to last forever during the extra long summer. I hate it and every year I bitch and complain I’m leaving. I think this year is the year. The problem is winter rolls around and while all you northerners are bitching and complaining about the cold and snow I’m enjoying my days at the beach.

Buying to much unnecessary equipment

American eagles are pretty much the only birds I like to shoot in my area.

He’s coming in for a landing then plays for a few and ready to take off again.

I didn’t have much time to set up and focus on these shots. It was a spur of the moment shot I wasn’t ready for. I got some blur or something on the left side.

I just love these birds.

For the most part anti venom is available for all of them. The black mamba and inland taipan can kill within about 30 minutes. Those 2 have a high fatality rate mainly because bites occur far from medical attention. I read Africa has about 20,000 bites a year. That’s a lot
The others are longer but no less deadly.

They were only inches from me but behind glass.
It was at a place that extracts venom to make anti venom.

I’ve only got 1. That was a mistype

Here’s the albino cobra
Sharp nose viper
Cape cobra (deadliest of all cobras)
Cantil (such a beautiful but deadly snake）
