Dear forumreaders
I need some advice.
I use the 5D MKIII and the 100-400 II for birdphotography.
But lately I struggle with the sharpness of pictures. Sometimes they are sharp and sometimes not. I checked and there is not an AFMA problem.
Here is one I did recently that seems ok regarding sharpness

I think it is a combination of human error and not using the right settings. Let's talk about the settings
I connect my 100-400II to a gimbal (Jobu HD4). It is on a Gitzo tripod.
What would be the preferred settings for the 100-400 II on the lens itself?
(I use 'range:full', AF=on, stabilization=on and mode=3).
On my 5D MKIII I have set AF-On to 'metering and AF-start' and Af config tool: Case 2 with tracking=-1 and accel./decel.=-2 and AFptauto switching=-2. AIservo=1st image priority. Settings stored under C1.
Are my settings correct for:
photohut: 1m to 15 meter (still and in flight)
Hope you can point me in the correct direction. Friday and Saturday I will be again taking photos from a photohut
