Simon,
I have been admiring your pic's since I first joined this forum (if you will excuse my opinions on waterfalls) and I think that people who think you are using HDR are mistaking perfect exposure, which allows you to process a brilliant finished picture, for jiggery pokery. You've certainly made me think about the exposure of my shots a lot more. I actually tend to expose for the brightest part of the sky now since using RAW I am realising that under exposed parts of the picture can be "lifted" if you know what I mean.

A fixed focal length gives better results than a zoom, so for wildlife that's what I would go for. Avoid 2X converters is also my advicem, you can usually crop a pictute with sharper results than a converter gives without slowing the lens further. If you aren't bothered about auoto-focus, ther are lots of secondhand bargains to be had.

They will be if they are claiming to have that lens

I tell 'em all to proceed with legal action or p%*s off!

How did your MBD affect exposure, what adjustments did you need to make?

What is AF200T?

mxuser,

To early yet to say anything much, except that it is a lot easier to handle than when using extension tubes, because of course you can focus on any distance from infinity down. It's my first macro lens and there are probably a few tricks I need to learn
