Not only a bit more responsive but perhaps a bit more consistently accurate too!

Is that just a perception or is it real? I would have thought that any 50mm lens in an identical set up to take a photograph would have the same depth of field given the same f-number, format size, and subject magnification where the film/sensor plane is the same distance from the subject. Or is something else in play to affect the image?I find that with a standard 50mm (mine is a Chinon F1.9), the depth of field is absolutely minute, whereas with my Sigma 50mm Macro, there's a bit more depth to play with.

PS Great ladybird capture by the way. Well done.

You've reminded me when I was making a Super 8 film of the Snowden Railway - I must have been the only person climbing the mountain with a movie camera similarly perched on top of a tripod. One sort of gets used to it I suppose.
Don't think the set-up would suit going on a cycle trip somehow though!!

Got it... Pentax want a time traveller to see what Canikon have got planned and then bring it out first!

Edit: But Pentax always used to do that in any case.

Thank you all for your comments.

Great pictures and thanks for sharing your set-up. The flash lighting is noticeable in the Pied-Wagtail shots, however the others look pretty natural. You certainly must do some planning for your shoots as it is hardly a point and shoot set-up!Thank you all for your comments.

My fav shot is the Dunnock and that doesn't look like flash was used at all.
Keep up the good work.

I don't believe that the word "programme" is in the USA dictionary What is a "program"? Or should it be "programme"?
What does "This position is exempt" mean?
