Oh yes! It's so easy when you get started too! I set up some new stuff today - blue teasel and some nice driftwood sticks - can't wait to shoot tomorrow now, although I bet the sun will be in! >

Do you find you need the sunshine to have a suitable shutter speed ?

Re: Sparrow, Great Tit, Blue Tit, Coal Tit

Haha! Well spotted - that's very amusing!

Phil, I do need excellent sunlight to operate the Bigma at any normal sort of ISO etc. It's getting on my nerves, as the slightest bit of cloud ruins a day's shooting but you get what you pay for! One day I shall have a long lens that I can use in normal weather conditions for this country Currently, I'm just rather pleased that I can make the most of what I've got, and I do get some good shots, so I'm not complaining too much!
