A good capture Alan.
How are you finding the 560 as in handling and focus speed etc.
Best regards

A great capture Alan. A big crop? You must have been about 2 miles away then Glad you're getting used to that new beast - I can only imagine how difficult it must be to actually get anything in the frame, moving or not! I remember talk when it came out about the maximum aperture - how do you find that translates generally into acceptable ISO/Shutter Speeds?

Very difficult. Lots of learning to do. All my birding has previously been handheld. Not comfortable using a tripod. Not only that but I need to replace my current tripod. Its not up to the job.
Nigel, it would be great if it'd been f4, but then again I would never have been able to afford one. I did use the K5 for the shot as owls are usually out in poor light
