[QUOTE="hark, post: 613193, member: 13196"] Yesterday I went out to see if switching from center weighted metering to matrix metering made any difference. Nope. Locked up on my first image although this time just doing a half-press of the shutter button resolved the mirror lock up issue. In all other instances, I had to turn the camera off. It only locked up with the first image though. Next time I'm out I will switch to manual mode--actually forgot to do that yesterday because this goose caught my attention. Normally I'm not into birding but this guy/gal was pretty animated and vocal. Decided to try photographing it while it was flying although I don't use back button focus. It was kind of fun trying to photograph the goose so I might give back button focus another try as I know it helps track the subject while keeping focus. These images aren't super sharp, but I thought it's face was comical. This first one had the tips of the wings in the image until I set the lens profile. Ahh well....
