I Know I Can Do This P1130899

I took my 100-400mm down to the pond to try my hand at some action shots. The fail rate was very high but I got a few that I was happy with.

@golftragic Thanks Marnie, I'm liking the reach of this lens and the fact that my new set up much lighter than my Nikon gear.

[Denise Wood]

Terrific - and he spotted you :)

[Ethel]

Excellent. I also changed from Nikon gear to a much lighter and enjoyable Olympus E-M5ll. It was a few yeas ago and I still love it.

[Dione Giorgio]

Fav. Superb action capture.

Super sharp... nice depth of field. You nailed it!

@merrelyn I hear very good things about those Olympus cameras. I'm very happy with my Fuji X-T2 but if I were to start from scratch again I'd seriously consider Olympus.
