I thought I would try getting a few shots of the Red Admiral Butterflies that very fuelling up on my flowers using my 200-600 lens handheld. It was a lot more difficult to focus on than I thought it would be. I might try using a tripod next time.

Gorgeous colours and detail and you caught him in a great pose for a beautiful capture Debra. I've found that there's usually a distance factor of from ten to fifteen feet from the subject that's optimal for zooming in to get the best focus. Sometimes I have to remind myself to step back and let the zoom work for me.
I love the colours Debra...and the honesty!! I also have issues with the big lens, and can only use them with a tripod.
Also you must respect the minumum limit focussing ( 6 or 8 feet with those big lens.) I do have focussing issues at very close range too. Those big lens are not done for that and I guess we are playing on the edge of what the lens can do.
Stricking colors Debra. Like it very much. I would repeat my comment from the #1 photo. Many factors can be responsable for your difficulty to focuss. Those camera are so complex now. Have you set the focussing to a single dot instead of a wide surface as usual.
