Thanks for the comment Sid. The Tamaron 200-400 F/5.6 lens is OK, in my opinion (It's got good glass). I can't give you much info on the autofus because I focus manually when using it. It is a little rough in low light situations and it is hard to see. When you set the lens to infinity it's always a hit or miss shot. Sometimes you get a nice clear shot, sometimes you don't. It is excellent when focusing on close subjects (like the birds) or basically anything below infinity.It is a long lens when extended and very shaky, even with the didicated tripod mount. A tripod is a must as well as remote shutter release and the use of mirror lockup. On the plus side it only costs around $500.00 US. Hope this info helps:)

great bird pics.. i am planning to get a tamaron 100-400 and i would like to know how good it is? How is the auto focusing and how is it working in low light conditions?

What a great shot. I would not have known that this was taken through a window. That's a hell of a lens!!
My wife is a speech-language therapists and she loved the scientific name of the mocking bird.

Beautiful shot, Jim! That's a bird we don't see here, so it's doubly of interest. Dave.
