    That is very impressive, I recently learned that a horse fly can be 20 times as fast as a house fly. Not sure if I remember it correctly. Posted 8 years ago

      This fly was very annoying. She was buzzing near my ear while I was trying to photograph a beetle kneeling down in a dry spiky grass... I couldn't catch her using the AF, so I switched to manual focus and managed to make a couple of shots. Posted 8 years ago
