message this message is importantGreat shot Henrik, how did you get the 105 lens with manual focus ready for these fast little guys, pre-focus on the spot you anticipated they would rise ?

message smile Hi Larry

Thanks - I guess it is a matter of practice smile I mainly use manual focus with the 105 .. I find the autofocus 2 slow ( have the old 105mm without VR, this one might be different) . Over time I have become faster with the manual focus .. and with the mandarine ... I used a dimmed search spot for focus ..... turned on only when the pair was rising smile
