very promising results!!

Is the lens with 'L' ? Wink ...

The bokeh is superb .. and I love warm colours



P.S. -- and the M42 is 45.46 so the cut has to be 3.46 mm ..

BTW quite deep cut -- is it worth of it?

Thanks

Is not L
I cut 3.5mm.
I think one of the differences with the L, is that it has a little, very small AC.
Thank you very much for your comment, you are a professional in these matters.
Greetings

Very nice shots, better than I would have expected from an FD 100-300/5.6.

So are those birds with the orange breasts robins? If so, now I know where they spend the winter! The robin's Northern Hemisphere summer home is in Northern North America, north of where I live. Here is a stopping off point for robins during their Fall migration. Usually during November we'll get very large flocks of them flying through, and landing to browse and feed on whatever they can find. But they don't hang around for very long at all.

Thanks for your words, but I know nothing about birds. Only the orange chest, do not let me sleep. Until I get used, Laughing Laughing Laughing Laughing

i admire your ability to hand-hold such a long lens ...

Hey Paul,

In bright sun, shooting with a 300mm lens hand-held isn't especially a challenge, I've found. At ISO 100 and f/8, your shutter speed's gonna be around 1/500 second. 1/1000 when shooting wide open at f/5.6.

I wouldn't be surprised if franco is also using good telephoto technique too -- bracing himself and his lens wherever possible.

Hey Michael
The key is the left hand, the weight should be there, hold your breath and shoot.

The shutter speed ranges from 1 / 100 a1/200. If you open the photos with the Brigde you can see, the DIAF Figure 1.8 and which is fixed on the adapter.
