Action shot attempt

Posted By Kurt Horsley
Outstanding!
Do just what you did-take a bunch of shots and you'll get a few good ones. "Panning" with a C5 must be quite a trick anyway, but this one is nice. I went ahead and ordered the MaxView 40 so I'll also be using my C5 soon. -Kurt Horsley

Jeff,
That is an outstanding picture.
Sorry about the bite.
I've been bitten several times myself.

Western Meadowlark

Cal,
These are all beautiful shots. I really liked the kingbird with the house finch. I have a question. I'm receiving a Canon D30 on Friday. I was curious if you were using the auto focus or focusing manually. Also, you said the lens is 80-200mm, is it a canon lens or something else. I've been looking at a 80-200 Canon lens myself and wanted to know your opinion on it. Thanks, Kurt Horsley

Great shot Bill,
Really good depth of field. That's not too easy on close-ups.

Canada Geese with Goslings

Posted By Kurt Horsley
Tyler,
That shot is awesome! You've given me great hope that my C5 will work well for imaging. I'll finally be ready to try it out this weekend. When you post, please let us know if you're using the Swarovski or the C5. Also, I'm curious, what method did you use to connect the camera to the eyepiece? I have the MaxView 40 "kit" ordered but don't have it yet. I'm going to use the D30 to try prime focus without an eyepiece for now. Regards, Kurt Horsley
