100km is too far for me, even 3km is. But, yesterday I took my first photo using the 5DS R (+ 100-400 mm II) of a blackbird about 5m away. It's nothing special as a composition, but I have never ever managed to get this level of detail of a blackbird's plumage before. The sharpness and focussing of the 5DS R is a real step up for me. Mind you, I would need a 100-400m lens to take photos at 100km.
I had to post a low quality image to get under 5000kb.
Wow, you have such colourful birds and obviously the fieldcraft to get near them. Good job!dolina said:
