A few swallows (@840mm) - definitely recommend the 200-600 or 100-400 though, super tough capturing swallows with this lens! The biggest issue is that they fly through the focus plan so quickly because the DOF is very shallow and then it is impossible to find them again!
No problem tracking them though and eye af seems to pick up the eyes pretty frequently, IF you can keep them in the frame though.
Does a nicer job on the background though but I think it will be next to impossible to really fill the frame and get the same detail as the zooms.
You need to be Arnie Schwazenegger to handhold this lens chasing swallows in flight though.

Alan - not just great BIF captures but the detail is incredible and no sharpening artefacts I can see - wow!
