Well I had a heck of a time trying to capture this dragonfly in flight, I tried pre-focusing then switching to manual, I tried using AI servo and got mixed results. They didn't come out too bad but they weren't as sharp as I would have liked. I think hand holding it wasn't a good idea either but I tried...so if anyone would like to share their technique, I'm all ears!
I also didn't bring my extension tubes so I had to make due with the 100-400mm.
Anyway, here's a sequence I put together and some shots of the dragonfly perched.
