I changed to my big lens but it was still foggy…
It was warm and sunny in Hakodate this morning and we headed north to catch the port birds before they depart…
Only problem was it was foggy. I used the RF 600 f/11 lens at first thinking I’d switch to my ‘serious’ lens on the way back when the fog cleared…
Close-up birds were just about manageable.
The light lens day continued…
So surprise surprise neither the RF 600 f/11 or the EF 400 f/5.6L are as good as the EF 500 f/4L but on days like yesterday sometimes it’s great to not worry about heavy lenses and dodgy shoulders.
Actually I used the big lens this afternoon and the camera/lens started shuddering and making loud noises and an error message appeared in the viewfinder. Hopefully just a case of cleaning the contacts….
