Re: I Like Birds

Nice hummer. I have thousands of hummer shots with many different cameras.  What used to do with cameras with poor AF was to focus on them when  drinking from a feeder but not shoot and lock focus then when the back away from the feeder shoot.  You will get a fair number of sharp ones that way.  Will have to try with my sd1m and sdqh.  They stay all winter at my place and it’s been really cold this week so I have been replacing frozen feeders every few hours for them.  They are crazy to get to the feeders when this cold and many at once.  Good to give them a life line when this cold.  Will be warming tomorrow so more easy for them.
