Hello everyone, I have a question regarding the above setup. In near darkness, when trying to photograph tree frogs at night, the red AF illuminator on the camera turns on, however, because of the length of the lens, much of the red light is obscured from the centre of the image I’m trying to capture. There doesn’t seem to be (or at least I can’t find) any sort of AF assist feature on the flash unit, so the lens will often hunt and not achieve focus - or am I missing something? Am I expecting too much? Camera is set to AF-S, and DMF is off.
Any ideas, tips or guidance that anyone can offer will be great!
TIA
