RobStubbs 0 Posted July 3, 2010 Share Posted July 3, 2010 And here's one taken from the Isle of Wight at a birds of prey display. Lots of shots of blurred birds (they won't fly by slowly ) More to follow once I've processed from RAW > jpg and all were taking in manual mode Rob.

Lots of shots of blurred birds (they won't fly by slowly ) Rob you need a faster shutter speed to freeze birds, your 450D should be virtually noise free up to ISO800, which would have given you 1/2000th instead of 1/250th (@ISO100), f8 would knock that back down to 1/1000th but is likely to produce sharper pics than f5.6, (it does on my 350). ..........and if you think flying birds are tricky, wait 'til you try dragonflies!

I don't want to freeze them, that defeats the object. F8 was chosen because I wanted to try and keep as get a depth of field as possible, and still keep a fast shutter speed. Agreed with the ISO setting though, didn't think of that at the time (doh!) Rob. My photo collection Link to post Share on other sites

I assumed from your comment "Lots of shots of blurred birds (they won't fly by slowly)" that you would have preferred not blurred birds, obviously I was wrong. Exif data shows that one taken at f5.6 not f8. Link to post Share on other sites
