Cole, how the heck do you get such good Coot pics? To get a properly exposed body AND bill on a sunny day is impossible for me. Maybe Texas light is different?

Looks like you get plenty close, Cole, they are all excellent.

I don't know Vickie, I have the darndest time metering black birds...still trying for the Redwing Black bird, and haven't got there yet...I am going to have to set up a blind at my pond as they nest there in the reeds...

Yes, I have never gotten a decent Coot shot either, but with Center Weighted and -1/3 EV, with Sun/Shade cooperating I managed somehow, she/he was just in the edge of the shade, as you can see more sun on the wing spread here original image...I never did get a good head shot with the DOF...and I was shooting for feather detail...oh well...they have beautiful eyes and head...

This guy was just too far away and the wind was blowing too hard to get good details...it is very challenging...

Mr Ichiro Kitao, I support the call to upgrade the FZ50.
I will not only buy one but two no questions asked...
