Hi all, I class myself as a beginner having had a dslr for roughly 18 months. Anyway I have purchased a second hand sigma 300 2.8 lens I also have a sigma 150-500 lens . My main interests are birds, wildlife etc. Few things I struggle with using my new lens so maybe you could help. I tried using the back focus this week after kingfishers, I focused on its perch and waited everything is ok even when the bird is there the problem begins when the bird darts down to the water my camera dosnt fire even though its on multiple shots. Is it because the bird moves off the focus point? just a bit puzzeling why the camera dosnt fire at the critical time, it seems to work ok when larger birds are in flight, I was under the impression that the back focus would lock the focus so presumed the camera would fire whether i was in focus or not? hope this makes sense lol
cheers
