old'un Posted November 21, 2017 Report Share Posted November 21, 2017 Absolutely brilliant pictures GG, how the hell did you manage to get such sharp pictures of the birds, as I would imagine the margin between the out of focus foreground and background was very small?

Normally take one sharp shot of the perch ( this is to stack the images later in Photoshop ) I then manually focus about 200mm behind the perch. Camera mounted on Gimble head and sturdy tripod. I think it was set up in AV mode F/5.6 ISO 800 x 1600 ( the light was poor ) carn't recall what shutter speeds I was getting but it was not faster enough to freeze the wings. In better lighting conditions I would have opened the F stop to F/7.1 for larger DoF. A few crushed nuts pushed into the rear of the perch to get the birds in. Camera remote control used on high speed burst. Then wait and hopefully get lucky. Hope that helps GG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
