[QUOTE="Hyogen, post: 114527, member: 12676"] I'm finding this is not quite fast enough for when I'm trying to get a picture of my cat about to leap towards me. Not sure what to do here.. Here are two I took with my old [B]Canon Rebel[/B] and prefocused it (estimated) and got [B]lucky. [/B]I still wish I were more lucky and these could have been a little sharper though.
