Very nice vulture shots. I especially like this one. He's seems rather more sinister than the rest.

Hi all,

Here are a few hummingbirds photos I took last week end:

John

These are great. Love hummers but we don't have any where I live. The purple guy is my favorite.

 

[serendipidy]

Nothing special, but I am testing how sharp is the 100-400 II at 400mm f/5.6 on the 5DIII.

Lovely photo. Very sharp. 8)

Lovely pictures here!

I humbly add a Bee-eater taken on the 28th of December 2014. I love the picture. Credit goes to my shiny new 7D2, the sturdy old 100-400L and to the pretty Bee-eater. The settings were M; 1/1250, f/7.1, ISO 250 shot @400mm.

BTW, all the oof and blurry shots I get from the 7D2 are mostly user error (hand shake or shutter speed not high enough) or subject movement. Not the 7D2.

Nice work. I'm jealous of your new 7D2 ;D. Keep posting 8)

Just love Bee-eaters, make great subjects and usually very approachable. This is a Little Bee-eater.
7D, EF 600mm f/4 + 1.4xii @ iso 640, 1/1600, f/7.1, Aperture priority + 1/3 EV.

Very nice shot. Well done.


...And welcome to cr

+1, beautiful bird.

Wonderful shots everyone and Happy New Year. 8)

Thanks. It took a while to get used to there being so much more pixel density compared to the 5D3. For the first two weeks most pictures had blur. Motion blur. I really needed to kick up the shutter speed compared to the 5D3!

I'm, yet again, floored by the images that comes out of the 300/2.8L. Amazing work, nonac! *all thumbs up*

Are those snow flurries or rain drops?

 

[Jack Douglas]

nonac, if you don't mind I'm most interested in a comparison of the 300 X2 full frame vs 7D2 300 X1.4, etc.

What's your take? I have the 300 and extenders and a 6D and may buy the 7D2 but I'm concerned about a decrease in IQ, especially since I clearly prefer to stay below ISO 1600 with the 6D.

Of course I wouldn't mind more reach but ......

Jack
