I have, I'm sure, followed the instruction book when trying c-i-f on my K7 with the Sigma, but without success.

In the book it says as something comes into the (pre-set) plane of focus, the shutter will fire.
Should it work on a static subject, by slowly focusing "through" the subect, firing when focus hits on the subject?

Any help/advice/experience will be gratefully recieved!

Beautiful creatures, great images, v. sharp.

But try Neat Image (free download) to smooth out the b/g noise.

Thanks for your thoughts, folks!

I'm going to pp my images a tad lighter in PSE9 & print!

That, I'm afraid, is as far as my tech ability or my pocket will stretch at the moment!

Appreciate your help/advice.

Roger.
