OH ok you were on a boat well that explains it. I hope you dont think i was nit picking with my comments, I just like to help and I know you just switched over to canon gear, actually exactly what Im using, Sometimes I get carried away as I really like to share the passion for this art. I do see a vast improvement in photos since you switched and I do know that 200-400 can be a pain and very restricting... I hope to shoot with you sometime soon.. Take Care.. Marcus
