OK...might be a few days before I can use it with work but I'll have something over the weekend, I did take a few inside but can't really focus that close to good as the minimum distance is close to 60 feet.

Out testing mine today, just simple tests. What you need is a small extension tube of around 25mm, I used a 50 mm tube, just to let it focus closer and keep that with you mate. I have the same issue re close focusing distance.

All the best Tom and trust me, grab a tube of some sort

I'll check into that there should be something like that available and thanks for the tip. Is that anything like a converter, I had thought about that but then you multiply the fstop also but not that big a deal cause your on a tripod anyway, I think before I try that i'll practice on it like it is but I will look into a extension tube as you suggest. We have eagles around here in Northern Wisconsin or seagulls is about the only birds this time of year.
