[QUOTE="Lawrence, post: 336256, member: 16844"] I am going to follow this thread simply because I have heard to many conflicting "tips' The first one I heard is never use a shutter speed under 1/1000th and preferably 1/2500th for all birding shots. Obviously that is cool for fast moving birds etc but what if you don't have really fast glass and your widest aperture is f5.6 (as per my 70-300 mm which is what I use for most of my bird shots)? The resultant ISO is very high and not sure I have the ideal camera for that. 1. Give up birding 2. Buy better glass or 3. Buy "better" camera? And of course the little F*****s (finches) don't exactly hang around. Get [MENTION=9753]Scott Murray[/MENTION] on here to help us out. [/QUOTE]
