My photo tour group and I had another session with sparing stallions today here in southern France. It was overcast so we didn't have to worry about unwanted shadows. To freeze every hair, I used 1/1250, f/6.3 and 400 ISO. It was really amazing to watch these two beautiful horses in action. Everyone in my group was blown away by the display of power, grace, and strength. I hand held the 100-400mm Canon lens and didn't use the image stabilization for fear it would slow down the autofocus.

Daniel Reynaud - Hi Jim, Would it help, depending on the distance, if once having used the autofocus we would then switch to manual which in theory would allow for fast shooting ? ( not sure if I'm really making myself really clear here !! )
