Thanks. No, I stabilized the camera the best I could on the frame of the bird blind I was in. I think this speaks well of how the image stabilization works on this camera.

Nice shots indeed.

Did you use stabilization setting 1 or 2?

I was looking for the best deal on a 2020Pro and found it at Filter Connection www.2filter.com or email Tracy at [email protected]. Their price $188.40 and they ship free. By the way, I have a Yoshida 55mm apapter tube and I can get the 55 to 62 step-up ring from them also for $4.44.

Sounds pretty good. The guy I bought mine from is selling it for $270.00.

I know someone from Singapore selling a Raynox 3.55x tele lens used. The condition is 7.5/10. But he claimed the lens is clean. He is letting go at S$115 = about USD69 before shipped of course. I wanted to get that actually but that lens is no longer produced by Raynox now. And I also read that tele lens with 3X and above, means there is 3 F stops, meaning the light loss is 3 times too. So only under bright daylight or bright enough produce good pics.

Anyone knows about this Particular raynox 3.55X tele lens? As for Raynox 2020 is a very good lens and much mor worthy than the more expensive and less zooming power of the original Panasonic tele lens. Sorry to say that I know there are people who had already bought the Panasonic tele lens. But I am speaking from my point of view only. Cos I have Raynox products like filters and they are of very high quality, the Raynox 2020 should be as good or even better but at less than half of pan's tele lens.

Regards,
