Another Fogo Island Feathered Friend!

[camperbc]

Here is another Fogo Island duck capture that I want to share with you. As per my previously posted duck pics, this too was taken handheld using one of my A500's and the Minolta 100-300mm APO (D) lens, at full zoom. (ISO 200, f/8, 1/320th sec)

I could not afford the Sony 70-300mm "G" lens at the time, so I picked this one up for a whopping $575 less! And to my eyes, the Minolta results look every bit as good! Stopped down, this lens is incredibly sharp, and I never tire of those famous "Minolta colours"!

Congratulations, Glen!

The duck appears to be close enough to pet its head. It pops out of the frame....


Thanks for sharing your new lens experience,
