And a third stop lower Iso doesn't make a big difference if you use software like DxO.

great shot!Thank you!
The RF100-400 is such a fun to use for DIF! The low weight is a big advantage.
Thanks Click, but primary the R5 did the job.Well done
Like this:When a female enters a male's territory the male will fly up and grab the female. Mating occurs on the wing and the pair are in tandem for only a brief period, often less than a minute. The pair separate and the female will find a suitable location for ovipositing, usually a stretch of open water with submerged vegetation. The female oviposits in flight, hovering above the water and dipping the tip of her abdomen in.
Good catch!Broad-bodied darter

R5 + RF100-400 @ 1/3200, f/9, ISO 6400 (first), 1250 (second).
These are relatively small crops, the movement of the wings is of low amplitude, and so only a small area of the sensor is read for the used image. This will greatly decrease the rolling shutter effect as the time window for the effective image area is shortened.Very nice!
It makes me wonder how the R7 with EFCS at 15fps will do, it might do a bit better at freezing the wingtips compared to the R5 e-shutter. Having said that, the e-shutter has done much better than I expected in the shots above.
It's my favourite. It's much easier to get them side on but for this shot you have to catch it banking and turning.I really like the second picture. The Emperor Dragonfly has its body tilted to the side and its head levelled. Cool shot!
It's a Common Whitetail.Still new to this part of CR and I've tried more than a little bit to identify this one. Help!

Wonderful pics, Joseph.Still new to this part of CR and I've tried more than a little bit to identify this one. Help!...
I second Alan's ID, that this is a female common whitetail.It's a Common Whitetail.
