But there's a dearth of good camera shops here. Dan is still hunting for a spare batt for his Canon point & shoot! Shall look out for one in the bigger cities - Lima and Buenos Aires. Thanks for the thought. <br /><br />Infinity symbol? So amazing! I gotta read up more on that. That fact must have escaped me during the movie cos it was soooo loonng. And slow. But good.Yi Linhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11015483616001636458noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2470659737235305933.post-72605100251588240872009-09-07T02:20:17.497-05:002009-09-07T02:20:17.497-05:00Just watched The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, ...Just watched The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, so here's one more geeky hummingbird fact for you: in flight their fluttering wings apparently move in the pattern of the infinity symbol :)<br /><br />Is there a teleconverter compatible with your kit lens?Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14791587479248245995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2470659737235305933.post-82005056375952677352009-09-06T15:36:00.354-05:002009-09-06T15:36:00.354-05:00Okay, okay. *Puts hands up*

It's super tricky shooting them. Esp. with the low lighting under all the foliage and their crazy speed! Half the time, cos of the poor zoom and the distance I need to keep from the birds, the birds look like specks on the screen. Then I go a-cropping again after I download the pix. I wld have stayed longer trying to get the perfect shot but we had spent 3-4 hours there already. Dan decided that a video would do better justice - check it on his latest post. Check out the crazy flapping - you can't even see the wings proper!<br /><br />Trace - haha, if there were a hummingbird with sucha long tail, it'll probably be walking, not flying! My tattoo is as realistic as your PINK COW!! :P<br /><br />Nick - Nyak, nyak. I have a wide-angle lens. But that's for shooting MOUNTAINS and really big BUILDINGS.Yi Linhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11015483616001636458noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2470659737235305933.post-47414688264029074032009-09-06T10:29:16.249-05:002009-09-06T10:29:16.249-05:00Actually, the ones where the body of the hummingbi...Actually, the ones where the body of the hummingbird is sharp, but the wings are a blur, are nicer. It gives the impression of movement. <br /><br />But in order to get that, I think you have to slow down your shutter speed a bit?
