A particular bird of prey does a perfect touch-and-go landing on Runway (RWY) 02L. Those yellow quadrilateral trapezium or trapezoid objects are two of the four optics in a Precision Approach Path Indicator (PAPI).

Not too worry though, the ferrets are there to keep an eye out for naughty birds.
 

Anyone have any idea when will Cebu's Sharklets come in?

UncleFai did something similar with a Nikon V1, a couple of TC's, and a Sigma 150-500, all stacked up, if I remember correctly.

I have a V2 with 28-300 usually mounted, and am waiting for the Sigma 50-500 ordered at the shop to arrive. The newer generation of 150-500 can AF with the V2, so I am waiting to see if the 50-500 newer version lens can do so as well. ;)

Dunno yet. Waiting for the lens to arrive and find out exactly how much. Should be in the range of 2300 thereabouts.

There is a used one in the classified section asking for 1600 if I recall. I want to see if the new gen 50-500 can AF with the V2... that's why i cannot take up the offer of the used lens.
