Thanks Nate, I have to admit that you and joel were my primary motivation in buying this lens---perhaps in a year or two, my hummers will look as good as your waterfoul and his songbirds.


Thanks for the encouragement,


Bob

Joel, Congrats to your daughter and her upcomming marriage. I am still waiting for mine to marry off, but she is out living on her own now---so its just me and the wife here at the house now---So, I chose to spend the kid's inheritance on photo equipment.[:O]


Thanks again,


Bob

I just noticed "Albuquerque, NM, United States 03/17/2011 7:30 A.M. Out For Delivery " . I wish I could say I was patiently waiting, but I am very impatient at this point. I have had the last three days off due to lens replacement surgery in one eye and that eye is doing great, unfortunately, I have a 5 year old contact in my right (viewfinder) eye and its like looking through a kit lens; Additionally, my optometrist is on vacation until next week[:@] But, if there is a will there is a way---I still have reading glasses and display on the back of the camera----So I will take pictures sometime today---better go refill the bird feeder.
