Chuck, the main reason for me to take this lens to CR was the low lighting conditions inside rain forest in CR. In addition, the smoother bokeh rendered by the lens didn\'t hurt either. As I mentioned it earlier, it would be hard for Sony to introduce a lens that would challenge this particular Canon lens.
Joshua these bird pics are just stunning! You nailed the focus and timing perfectly. It\'s amazing that you can get shots like this with a 400mm focal length lens. Most of the serious full time birders use 600 and 800mm lenses with teleconverters to get these kinds of captures. The combination of the great Sony 42 MP sensor and the Canon lens with some cropping can really work well together! Bravo
