yes mate, full out...f7.1 no os ,very rarely do i use os on this lens...I'll keep this lens for swifts, its very good for these tracking is spot on, and you can latch on to the bird from distance then zoom in ,great lens...mark.

That's a lovely capture Mark, might be worth shaving a touch off the right hand side to see how it looks then as I don't think you need all that oof fernage.
