I finally managed to catch on of these rocket ship blue finches with some kinda of clarity!
Thank you super cheap, light, boring Pentax M 135 f3.5.
These bloody finches are about 5cm tall maybe. And zoom around like cocaine high investment bankers! A real Pokemon moment for the younger generation amongst us

Yes there us purple fringing, yes there is green fringing, but it ain't that bad wide open.. Perhaps if you shot a black and white magpie it might be worse |

Oh, yes I believe you that was hard to get them especially with manual glass. Quite an achievement for sure.
I am currently looking for good copy of A135mm 2.8 lens. _________________

Tromboads did the nice job, the lens helped a little.
In uk there is no desert but the birds are all brown, except the chaffinch, goldfinch, greenfinch, bluetit, great tit, yellowhammer, great spotted woodpecker, green woodpecker etc...
...Ok not all brown, just the sparrows, wrens, reed buntings, jays etc... _________________ Hero in the 'messin-with-cameras-for-the-hell-of-it department'. Official. |

That place was mental for bird life. I expect most of islands in the tropics aren't to far off though.
And yes we are pretty luck down here, Gods Country after all. oh wait which God? |
