"Bigma" 50~500 on an old Minolta 7D DSLR. Effective focal length is
75~750; great air show lens! (aside from the hernia carrying it
around...)

The "green flash" image is a full res crop from a subsequent image.

I have a 7D and use it regularly. It will do everything you ask it to.

Almsot everything... It won't go make me a sandwich or clean the
cat's litterbox.

But it is a very nice camera.

Mine is pretty good with sandwiches, but always leaves the mustard out.

I max out at 210mm fl for my DSLR - Hummmmm 50 - 500 sounds like Fun!

I've seen the Green Flash several times over Monterey Bay from Fremont
Peak State Park in Calif. Although a Very Nice shot it isn't a Green Flash.
When you capture a Green Flash the Sun will have set just moments prior to
you seeing it.

Well, ackshirley...

well worth a bookmark!)

A sharp temperature discontinuity in the atmosphere can cause green
flash while the sun is still above the horizon. I'm thinking the
rapid change in temp that sometimes occurs above forested areas may be
behind what I caught.

Oh, Ok. I stand corrected, as the Green Flash was for me always a
Visual Event.
