Dear all Normally I photograph flying dragonflies with Canon, last year most of the flight pictures were taken with an Olympus. I have been doing normal macros with Olympus for about 5 years, but sometimes I also have a Canon with me. Calopteryx virgo, male [/url] Calopteryx splendens...

Hi, A 7D MK II with 100-400 MK II and a 1.4 TC is, in my opinion, fine for BIF. More reach and less weight as a big white on a 1DX or 5D. What shutter speed and AF setup do you use? And, not unimportant, what birds are you photographing? Best regards helmut

Great shots! Best regards Helmut

To be honest, i don't need a new Trioplan, the old one is good enough. _A291012 by Helmut Gloor, auf Flickr _A291027 by Helmut Gloor, auf Flickr Best regards Helmut

Hi Ryan Well, one big question, handheld or tripod? If tripod, the 180mm is, in my opinion, a bit sharper than the 100mm. If handheld and EF, the 100mm is the better choice. As an alternative, the Sigma 2.8 150mm with IS is a very good lens, with a 2X TC you have enough reach to shot flying...
