Hi...Thanks Joan. I'm using a little every day!<br /><br />Hi Lynda;) I am trying but find I revert back to my well-known Sony more often than I should. <br /><br />Hi diane;) you definitely know more than I do. Thanks for the handy hints. I'll try them for sure.

It is hard to take birds against the sky as the camera reads the light background and then makes the subject dark. If you are close you can use a flash which is not really suitable for animals. If using a tele lens then you have to open the shutter more and let more light in. AF. Not that I really know what i'm talking about here.diane bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12002292118984909883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-617652323643666421.post-2361080235146256352010-04-19T09:09:52.885+02:002010-04-19T09:09:52.885+02:00Lovely, close-up photo's Jo - your new camera ...Lovely, close-up photo's Jo - your new camera is great & I look forward to seeing all the photo's you take with it !<br />xxDiary From Africahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15191543533838372003noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-617652323643666421.post-20940239127933920202010-04-19T08:03:41.250+02:002010-04-19T08:03:41.250+02:00Congrats on the new camera Jo.

You're a darling and I know you'll encourage me with this new gadget. The beak is also used to drink nectar from the blooms - I've yet to capture this when I next get home. Be blessed, my friend.
