thanks for the feedback guys

THe 50mm 1,8 seems to be a good choice - might opt for it but still thinking manual might be the way to go in live view

Could someone explain to me better how "focus peaking" works?

exactly

The difference is remarkable. Im not dismissing Sigmas OS though. Its fantastic - just not for birds that move all over the place

The OS is great for static stuff but not great IMO for action.

Theres a slight delay before it kicks in... I dont use it at all for birds. I know you can use the panning (number 2 option) but its a little slow for me

These birds were travelling along cliffs at great speed today - a friend had a speed gun and tracked one of them at 60mph. They are one of my fav birds and I only wish i had a lens to catch up with them!

These are the best of the bunch

k-5 and 150 - 500(OS turned off in camera and lens

Nice shots smeggster but if I'm honest i prefer the tight approach. I'm going to have to start practising my live view focusing for the time being
