so,this is about 80% of full frame,in shots like this I use AF,but without conwerter(is to slow then).of course is not easy,I spend last seven months photographing stnonechats in one place,and I took hundreds,or even thousends in my opinion good photos,but only several in flight.
is strange what you talking about my website,everything work properly
