Since I was able to retrieve some of the files that I thought were lost due to my HDD crashing, I've been birding on hte recovered files and found some I haven't posted before.

Although I've tried several time to test my rig on BIF, I wasn't really satisfied with the result until I saw this. Looks like I got everything right and getting good BIF photos with the 600 is not impossible. For a moment there I was worried that I won't get good BIF shots with this rig.

TRIPLE WOW pala!
