6.00am this Dunnock outside bedroom window woke me up so did a quick portrait through glass before it flew off! Tech details D850 again with same 80-400mm at 400mm bird less than 5 feet.
Yes Eric this is all you need but D500 not for sale quite jet yet!Eric I will be White Hart Hotel Boston photographing birds on the Wash 13-16 of next month, great if we could meet up for a day of bird photography?
I am very impressed you sleep with the D850 by your side Graham.
Very interested at the prospect of a lightweight 600mm coming onto the market. I might well use that as the trigger to get a D850 to pair with it. Could be an ideal combo...provided the birds aren't only 5ft away.
My birdwatching friend and I have been planning to visit Frampton ever since you first mentioned it, but sorting out my deceased father's estate got in the way. His passing also somewhat sapped my enthusiasm for most things. I am emptying his house of furniture next week.
But It would be an ideal opportunity to combine the two events. I will give you a call nearer the time.
