Thanks KK I think the strong BG is quite instersting with light color tern It is realy realy hard hand held 5.9KG 600mm with 1.4X on a rocking boat very easy to get out of frame and no time to AF I wish I have 500mm both shoot have -0.7 ev, but the second one is too hight contrast .

| Hendrix, A sturdy monopod will fit the job nicely in this case! Else, you better go body training fast ... KK Hui ARPS www.geocities.com/kkhui_001

| Hendrix, I opt for the suggestion of KK that a monopod do help. So far I had tried once to shot tern in boat with EF500/4 IS when I had detached the EF1.4II. I still faced the same problem of getting out-of-frame photo, i.e. was not able to get high quality photo (in terms of stable, sharpness, composition etc.). IMO, it was very unflexible. Though I could not shot with 500 on boat now, I think I would not retry as it is very danagerous (to my expensive lens) and inconvenience. Regards Daniel
