    Great Crested Grebe

    Went to Rutland Water to photograph Ospreys but couldn't resist the Grebes also.

              One of my favourite birds Carol and you have two lovely images. I especially like the second one.

                Thank you so much everyone. I was testing out a new lens so was delighted that these worked so well.

                    Thank you Ant. Can I ask if you have the USB hub and if so, is it useful?

                      I do have the hub. On a basic level if you want to apply any of the updates that come out now and again you'll need one.

                      You can tweak various features, focus speed, etc.

                      I've applied some settings to the custom switch so that focus is 10m to infinity on one setting to just speed up focus time when it needs to aquire a new subject.

                      IIRC there are some vids on YouTube that go through the different options.
