doxhope 2 Posted May 31, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2009 Do you only see Tern's by the sea then ? Thats their main habitat Kay, but Ive seen them up our river in the summer on the tidal stretch, they nest near where I live, which is great for me..they dive like gannets for sand eel and the likes..

No it was a quick flash i saw , how far away from the subject are you when you took the pic of the bird diving ? A bit too far past the limit of my lense, thats how its not as sharp as usual cropped a little too much..come up as a white dot agains sea in my camera screen..

Kay 3,709 Posted May 31, 2009 Report Share Posted May 31, 2009 really that far away god thats good , but thats a seperate lense though , not the one you would get if you brought a bundle , i do need to ask you about lenses & what the measurements mean Quote Link to post Share on other sites
doxhope 2 Posted May 31, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2009 In a bundle you usually just get a standard lense, that would do what you do as a photographer.. That lense that Dawnb is advertising would be right up your street, if you has a Nikon or Fuji S pro range, they usually are over £800 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kay 3,709 Posted May 31, 2009 Report Share Posted May 31, 2009 Would this be a good buy for a beginners dslr camera then ? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/NIKON-D60-D-SLR-DIGI...%3A1%7C294%3A50 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
