K20D and Sigma 50-500mm "Bigma"
Still practicing with the big lens. These were pretty close shots at high focal length so the DOF was very sharp. Getting better though...

Very good series. I agree that the 3rd shot is very good. Great colour and very sharp.

I had a look at the EXIF data and you shot that one at 500mm 1/250th and f 13. Is that correct?

Peter, I'm sorry I overlooked your question when I replied last time. Yes, the exif is correct. I have tried using about 420mm instead of 500 as you suggested, but have not looked at the images yet.

Thanks for the additional information. This post may have pushed me over the fence on this lens. Keep practicing and sharing the fruits of your efforts!

Thanks for your comments! I've actually obtained some that are better since these, but I hate to fill the forum with bird shots so fast I might post a small set this evening. Seems like the only visitors I've had today is more Junkos and Tufted Titmice!

Regards,
Morgan
