Just spent a few days in Sydney for work.
Used up all my spare time in Centennial Park.
Great to be pointing the camera at totally new (for me) brids and such a help to have good light

Great quality seal shots.

Stunning mate, how did you get the bird to hold the bug for a macro shot. Could do with that accessory

I think I would rather set the self timer and then catapult my camera towards the subject.

It's not a macro shot - same lens on all shots.
EF400 f5.6 L

Keebs what lens did you use for the pictures of them birds. I love them and looking for a decent zoom lens to go with my first dlsr. I guess yours would be a bit out of my price range though

That is a chunk of money but bargain basement when you compare it with the 2.8 & f4 IS models. Are they that much better to warrant a £6479.00 & £5298.00 price tag?
