Some more from the same event. I experimented a bit with some sliders in Lightroom... Please give feedback with your opinion about these.

On my flickr page (below link) there are some albums with "zoo pictures". There is an album with "Arnhem Zoo 2014 SEL18-200" pictures, and the latest "Zoo Blijdorp 2018" album has recens 18-135 ...

I think Dirk was very lucky to have a perfect copy of the SEL18-200. I also had the 18-200 (silver one) and used it for several years. Sometimes with good results, but my copy was heavily ...

These are from the 2016 Tank event at the National Militair Museum in The Netherlands. I didn't realy took the opportunity earlier to sort out hundreds of pictures and post-process them... At that ...

I think many of us were in same position, deciding between FE 70-200 F/4 and 70-300. I use the lens op APS-C camera. I rented the lens for a week before I decided to buy it. I decided for the FE ...

Since I want to make transition to FF in near future I told myself some time ago to not invest in any APS-C lenses but all reviews of the 18-135 were so good and the package (size, weight, range, ...

Ahh.. electric air blower should be fine fine. With you mentioned air compressor I was more thinking of the mechanical piston air compressors that many of us have at home.. ;-) Not a good idea to ...

Realy, air compressor for sensor cleaning? Personally I'd be very carefull to do that. Most air compressors don't deliver clean dry air : it contains moist and worse: oil. You don't want ...

Thanks for sharing your experience. Personally I started with a 10 stop ND filter for sunset/seascape. I soon realized that 10 stops is often too strong during the last minutes of the sunset or ...

Beautiful pictures of a very special place.  Nice work. This picture is simply amazing - like it a lot. Thank you for sharing.

Lovely pictures... Indonesia is my favorite country, unfortunately I never had the opportunity yet to see the orang hutans in their wild habitat. Such a beautiful animals. Very sad that they are ...

I do like the picture. It only shows that focus is slightly off (or maybe a bit of motion blur) when you zoom in at 100%. When you know that your hand is not that steady than I would suggest ...

Achromatic close-up lenses typically have 2 lens elements. There is the Canon 250D (+4) and 500D (+2) achromatic close op lenses available in 52 / 58 mm (250D) resp. 52 / 58 / 72 / 77 mm (500D). Th ...

Some more... using SEL18-135 and FE 70-200. The SEL 18-135 realy did very well, even with difficult light (strong back light). Realy happy with the lens, and I have a very good copy I think.. Only ...

This is one my wife took last week during family visit in Eastern Java, Indonesia. It was about 2.5 meters long. I have never in my life seen such long bananas.

Nice capture!

Before putting cash on the table and buy dedicated macro lens for you camera you might want to experiment first with one of the current lenses that you have and get a screw-on close-up lens for ...

I like the flower, nice composition, thanks for sharing. However I agree with above poster that unfortunately the picture is a bit out of focus.  FE 70-200 F/4 is a very sharp lens and can give ...

That's right, Marabou Stork. They are extremely ugly, but fun to shoot on camera.
