If the light was poor you have the double problem of camera shake and subject movement. I would try again in good light and see if you are happier then.

Are you using a tripod/monopod? I know the 50-500mm is a pretty large lens (hopefully getting one in 2 weeks time). It's larger than the 135-400mm I have now and that is a bit heavy for hand held under all but perfect conditions (which you didn't have by any means). Also they look very heavy c...

Yes, they are crops, will sort out one of the originals straight from the camera, and yes, I was using a tripod but not a remote release, and yes, it is a big bu@@er. Don't think I can blame the K20 because I have sharp shots with different lens so if there is a problem other than the operator then ...

Unless you have a really steady tripod you will get movement when you press the shutter release, certainly with the Bigma on it. I assume you had the Bigma on the tripod not the camera? These were taken with both a Ds and the K20D - the Ds offers less "cropability" than than K20D does which will re...

if you got them at a feeder, why not try setting up some lights? perhaps you can get an aperture/shutter/iso combo that you KNOW should give you sharp images... and also test your lens to see if it is front/back focusing... if you are using a tripod, the sr should be off, there was a fella here ...

Jackie, My input is from a very inexperienced point of view, so please take it with a pinch of salt. I use my K20 with the 300mm plus the TC on it and I have seen many shots of mine like the ones you have. And I have some which came out pretty sharp, if you see on a couple of threads where I hav...

I think as I suspected the problem is with the operator. The tripod I used (yes, did have the lens on it) was my Slik and I suspected at the time that it was not up to the job but as I had it rammed between the bath and the wash hand basin where I did not think I would get anything more substant...

Sorry forgot to ask what is a TC, just know I will feel daft when I am told but at the moment I just can't think.

Looking at that shot it seems the blue feeder has a lot more sharpness to it than the bird itself. I know a lot of people manual focus with the Bigma as it tends to give better results. Also may be worth stopping down a bit more and getting some of it back in processing. Keep going though as ...

Thank you, I am just relived that it seems to be me and not the lens, not one you can afford to buy and then ignore. Hope to take it to wildfowl areas and I should have no light problem there. Thing to do is grit teeth and keep trying.

Hope to take it to wildfowl areas and I should have no light problem there. Move to Spain as I did .. you can manage anything there handheld. Finding it a bit more difficult since I returned last week.

aminstar Cracking good post..if I may say so..I think I'll try some similar shots with mine. :wink: Stupid observation from total amateur, please...use of tc when used with slow lens may reduce the effective aperture enough that the camera's autofocus system will no longer work....correct?:...
