Not full sized but full frame and crop

They are web-sized, very small size. I can't see if they are in focus or not. I can post images that are going to look sharp at this size, but at 100 % they are not in focus at all. I highly doubt your keeper rate will be high for anything other than stationary or slow moving birds. You can't pretend NEX-7 is an action camera made for taking shots of birds though. Let's be realistic...

Feel free to prove me wrong on this though. I am just trying to be realistic....

Well what you won't get is full sized images posted here at DPR.

What I can do is post FF images and crops from those. Might not be up to your standards, but I'm happy with them.

A simple sea gull shot



FF from the NEX-7

Crop from above shot, noise and all. Auto settings using Photoimpact.

Like I said, I'm happy with them. You might not be. Keeper rate, no issue with that and around 80-90% of my shots are in flight.

I would be interested in seeing a few of your in flight shots as well. Hey, I love birds. If you have a Kingfisher in flight, any species, that would be excellent. I love them.

All the best.

Danny.
