missed it by thaaaaaaaaat much!

sometimes my nex7 really pisses me off... like when it hunts for autofocus... and i miss the shot...

spent the day in Sudbury for work... home now and need to do some prep for a work thing tomorrow...

tx so much for the lovely response to my chair shot!

[Graeme Stevens]

If it's any comfort to you, which I suspect it won't be, my camera sometimes spends a lot of its time hunting for focus

[Graeme Stevens]

@graemestevens Oh, and I like this a lot

[Taffy]

I wish my vision were better and then I wouldn't need autofocus! Looks like it was a dramatic sky.

[Simply Amanda]

Chop chop. How funny!

[Ukandie!]

Shame you did not get it, love the drama of the sky.

[Paul J]

I like this.

[summerfield]

darn autofocus! well, you still got the heli. still busy as in very busy? :-)

[KWind]

Great light!

[☠northy]

@summerfield this week is hideous... Should have more time after the weekend... Best if we can plan a bit so I don't end up feeling too frantic

[Kerri]

Beautiful

[Barbara Webb]

Still a beautiful picture.

[Susan]

My camera, also mirrorless, does the same damn thing. Nice light, like the hint of sun rays.

[Trinda Love]

Wonderful clouds

[Sally Ings]

Most frustrating when that happens! The final position of the helicopter adds some mystery as it heads off into the dark.

[Sue]

Hard luck. Sometimes manual focus is better in dark conditions

[Marta]

:( I can definitely sympathise.

[Joan Robillard]

Feel that way when I am trying to capture birds.

[Andy Mcculloch]

Ah nearly, still a cool sky

[Humphrey Hippo]

I kinda like how it looks like the heli is escaping. :)
If it's any comfort, the NEX-6 and NEX-5T are the same. ;)

[Hubregt Visser]

Still a very pretty shot. I just had the same with a plane and a full moon. I do recognise the feeling.

[Sheralee S]

Oh, darn! That would have been great with it in the light. That happens all the time for me with birds :)
