So obviously I need to have my eyes checked. I don't see any lively creatures...
If only it had occurred to me to take some shots to create HDR pictures when I went to the Grand Canyon!
Gary, great picture as usual.

Lenses / Re: Stuck on whether to return sigma 35mm for 35mm 1.4L or 35f2 is
« on: May 04, 2013, 04:53:07 PM »Update on Sigma 35mm. I took it in locally and they saw I was AFMA to +10 and they actually put it at about +15 internally so my camera is spot on and I am at 0 in camera. That makes this lens that much sweeter. Glad I took it in. If you buy a Sigma and it seems off send it in is my advise.Yay! Sounds like you have a keeper now!

« on: May 04, 2013, 04:37:44 PM »Nice pics Krob ... you are very lucky to have such beautiful birds in your area (of course it isn't just luck and you are very talented in getting those lovely pics) ... we hardly get to see any birds here, coz there are hardly any trees ... but the desert landscape is slowly changing here and we are getting to see some more birds these days.Thank you so much Rienz! I appreciate your kindness. I do feel quite blessed often times out shooting for the wildlife we have surrounding us here. Interestingly enough, many locals ask me often, "Where do you see all these birds at?" I just laugh to myself really, thinking, stop what you're doing, take a look around! They're everywhere!

« on: May 04, 2013, 04:34:33 PM »+1 on that, I was thinking the same thing! If Sigma should be tightening up it's qc to avoid needing the dock, how much more at the price should Canon be tightening up their QC so we don't have to spend all that time MFA'ing our lenses? I'm glad I can MFA my lens's. If I had the Sigma, I'd probably be glad to have the dock!sharpness is a result of a properly focused image.
nonsense....
if the lens does not deliver the optical sharpness, no focusing will solve that.QuoteIt's nice of Sigma to actually deliver the USB dock, but the fact is Sigma should tighten up its QC process so we don't NEED to use the dock.
well canon should be the first then to make lenses that need no AFMA.
