    Lemmie tell you what... if you guys want to get some SICK bird shots the Galapagos is the place to do it. Humans are on the a-ok list with about most animals there... I could EASILY get a blue footed boobie portrait with the 10-22 and it wouldn't rustle a single feather.

    This is a male frigate with his sack inflated attempting to attract female frigates. No joke, the male with the biggest sack gets all the women rolleyes1.gif... we saw this one get three within 10 minutes!! thumb.gif

    Well... in the Galapagos yeah...I honestly don't know you would possibly do with a 1.6x body and more than 300mm of zoom there.
