It's a turbo charged 1 litre. New idea for Ford but other
companies have had them for a few years. Should run quite
well.

Good to hear that your on the mend Gwynn

21.64mm is half the diagonal
of FF.... Image height is the radius of the image circle.

Well said

I thought it funny that the OP ignored my post at the beginning and
painted all the following posts green

During the 70's the head photographer for BICC (Ron Callender?? )who
was involved with street lighting produced some very technical
proofs in the BJP over a period of several weeks to show that
film just couldn't record street lighting levels accurately.
And that any such photographs were meaningless

Look at this photo you could read a book under that
lighting if it was that bright

You couldn't even record home lighting levels accurately.
Show someone an interior with daylight balanced lighting
and one with the normal yellow/orange tungsten lighting
and they will prefer the daylight one. But if you put
the daylight bulbs in their home, they'll change them
back to 3200K tungsten very quickly

It is FF, but it's not an 80-400mm which would have
been more useful

Great captures showing up well all the details of the bird.

Some battery tests:

These are also very good batteries:

Eneloops are fine. Any Eneloops will work in any
equipment, they only make one type apart from the
two capacities 2000 mAh and 2500 mAh. The 2000's
are more common and cheaper.

Don't skimp on a charger. The better ones will tell you
how many milliamps your batteries actually hold so you can
replace any duffs.

The one I use is a Technoline bl-700 £30 off Amazon
but they are out of stock. It's sold at other shops
such as this one link

Good video demo:

One of these 50mm f1.9's sold last night on ebay for £14 posted
Was it anyone on here

I also took some shots of some sheep yesterday and can
thoroughly recommend this lens for sheep photography

I've got a sister who lives in Italy so I have quite a bit
of experience with the postal service. My problems have
usually been speed because I rarely post anything of any
great value. Even letters can take ages at times.
