I'll put a couple of more photos but most of which I took were out of focus. Sad I was learning to use manual focusing. Sometimes it's damn hard Very Happy Katz Eye coming soon, yes!

Pretty bad, I believe on DSLR nobody can focusing better without focusing aid. I have Katz-Eye too it will help a lot , but exposure correction for every aperture will be pain a bit, due need to compensate darkness of split screen.

Yes but I always fire with RAW so I can adjust the brightness a bit... So I don't think it'll be a problem. Wink

But I got good pictures from the trip. Couple of the birds, more of the other stuff. Laughing

Is the meerkat looking out for flying apes??And I bet those adventurers wondered why the rain never came ...it was just a sprinkle.

Very good set. I always have trouble with meerkats, I think they never actually sit still
