The grosbeak flew by me while I was riding on my ATV. I had never seen one before or since. I saw it land in a pin oak tree, but could not see him at that distance so I stood up and zoomed in to 20x and pointed to where I thought he was and snapped the picture. If it was not for the digital stabilization I don't think I would have gotten a clear picture. Everything seemed to come together at the right time. I was amazed when I got home and down loaded the picture and saw that he was centered in the frame.

PS: With this camera I do not need to carry different lenses. The one lens goes from SUPER MACRO all the way out to 20x.
Here are a couple of close ups: ( I blacked out the background around the IRUS in Photoshop ). I am not a professional photographer just a guy that has a trigger finger for a gun & a camera. The camera does all the work.
