Your R System Images - March 2024

[PKM-UK]

Hi Only RF,

Cheers - appreciated!

'Getting close' is definitely a major advantage when it comes to capturing the fine feather detail.

The R7 helps in this respect as I can stand a lot further back and get the same framing as I would with my R5 - and the skittish birds are (much) happier.

(Only the local robins are reasonably comfortable about hanging around and posing - sometimes).


Having said all that, you can rest assured our 'Bin' is a full as everyone else's after a session...

Getting off to a good start - R7 'As shot' vs 'Final crop'...

Good points. The samples you sent me with your R were similar. I'm often cropping quite a bit more. I have to remember that.

Hi David,

A fantastic series of nailed-on captures - very difficult to single out a favourite, but for us #3 (just) shades it. (Long-tailed tits are absolute cuties too!).

Well done - and thank you for sharing...

P&K

Thank you.

Love the bird photos; the black and white bird with the red eyes is very striking

Hi Don,

We're pleased to hear you enjoyed our images.

The Sumatran Laughingthrush was on top form for both of our visits, very inquisitive and happy to be singing (in the rain... ) - a real cutie.

As the sun dipped into the golden hour, I loved the way it lit this Oak tree up.
The 10-18 EF S is a stellar lens.

Hi Nick,

Oak trees are absolutely wonderful for photography - art in nature! - and this one's a real beauty. Stupendous sky you've captured here too.

(The EF-S10-18mm is a terrific lens for this kind of shot).

Thank you for sharing...

Have to agree Phil, the lens is simply outstanding for the money. It's a great walkaround lens as it weighs next to nothing.

Hi Only RF,

Another cool and misty morning here, so these golden shades are a very welcome sight.

Two fine captures featuring beautiful creatures (with rather striking eyes in evidence too).

Thank you for sharing...
