Great shots Mike
Did you take these ones handheld or on a tripod?
I wonder why they dont show any EXIF on the photo when I right click on it. Usually I am able to see as I am using firefox.
Thanks

All my shots are handheld, I very very rarely use a tripod as I just find it too much hassle (which is why I probably bin a lot of shots).
I am not sure why but Flickr strips the Exif in all but the original size.

Oh I saw the EXIF on your gallery . nice shot, worth keeping it there as part of your portfolio.Amin.

About handheld or tripod , I fully agree with you, tripod is always such a hassle , but you definitely have done pretty well. These shots seem to be spot on on sharpness, am not sure if a tripod would have enhanced it further.

Wow they are so sharp and with a good DOF as well, splendid!
Mike and Amin, what about using a monopod instead of a tripod?

I think I have nailed what the culprit is with my focusing. I wrote about it on the other thread.
I am going to check it now and try to put it right. I have the suspicion that the majority of my shots with this lens lacked huge sharpness because of that. It seems to be way out of focus. Check the images I put up

To be honest I don't really need one here is Spain because the light is so good but I have a nice new redsnapper tripod and monopod waiting for me in the UK for when I return to the dark dreary days ...

He did but wouldn't move for a while but as I got closer he got a bit twitchy until he finally flew off.did the robin spot you?
The problem I have is that he seems to land there a lot but the tree is in next doors garden and there is a bush right in the firing line so I have to move from one side, which is not very close, to the other, which is too close for him to be comfortable with me.
