I definitely need better glass and to use my tripod.  HOSTED PHOTO please log in to view hosted photos in full size.  HOSTED PHOTO please log in to view hosted photos in full size.

canonloader Cream of the Crop  More info | May 01, 2007 09:09 | #2 Yup, I've been taking my tripod with me more and more recently. I think especially with eagles, who don't move all that much, it could give you another couple of f/stops or lower ISO. Mitch- ____...^.^...____

Unfortunate the 20D doesn't have spot metering. Spot metering and the bigger LCD are to two advatages that I've heard of to the 30D over the 20D. Partial metering will do on high contrast subjects like eagles & ospreys especially if the subject is over 75 feet away. For nearer subjects, I use center-weighted average. Nice captures Dan. I like the pose on the first. Best regards - Reyno
