Very Foxy!
I must be a real chicken since it has never occurred to me to shoot wildlife with MF.

I commend you too! I have a 400/2.8 for my Canon and what I would typically grab for wildlife. However, the thought of MF detail is intriguing -- and Mamiya did make a manual focus 500mm that was supposedly quite good...The 300mm plus 1.7x gives me 500mm; it's manual focus, so most of my other shots have a slight blur. I didn't extend the tripod and I was on my knees, at their level.
Thanks Jack. Same here, I have the Canon 400/5.6 L and that's what I would ordinarily use for this. But since switching to MF in 2005 I haven't touched my Canon gear. The HC1.7x is tack sharp, fantastic piece of glass. Be well.I commend you too! I have a 400/2.8 for my Canon and what I would typically grab for wildlife.

Very nice, Marq. Not my sort of photography at all, which is perhaps why I admire those like you who can do it so well!Here are a couple I thought I'd share from a shoot I had 2 weeks ago. All shot with P-AFDIII / P45+ with a mix of 45mm AF & 80mm AFD. I utilized Elinchrom lighting, pre-styled in C1 and post in CS4.
Enjoy!
