    Good illustration and point well taken, Neil. Also would you care to comment on defocusing more? I tried focusing on the subject's body and then turning the scope focus ever so slightly clockwise, then adjusting the A590IS to Macro and MF. This is the result I got (subject matter 30-35 feet...

    _____ Very, very nice and sharp photo, Neil. But don't you think that 12.1 MP and the Swaro optical quality is the difference? BTW, we used to call the bird "bully-bully", or more correctly, bul-bul. Ex HK'er.
