A nice set John, but it looks to me like you should be getting sharper results from that combo ~ Ron

Ron, you bring up a good point, I'm reserving judgement. Part of my problem is the white wings and grungy body, getting both exposed well in bright sunlight is a problem. I'm doing a lot of pictures now, and a lot of the detail comes through on them, thats why I think i have a swan problem and not a camera, lens problem. The first pictures in a prevous thread illustrate my point. I'm open to your thoughts on the matter

OK - I admit it - I'm a bit nuts about sharpness... None of your shots look absolutely tack sharp to me. They are close, but you should be getting better. Have you MF'ed the combo. You can do the "Dot Tune" method very quickly once you understand it, and it's free. Check out eyelaser's posts for sharpness. That's what you should be getting ~ Ron
