The Raptor Conservatory
7

Here are a few pictures from my outing to the Conservatory.  I had a difficult time using the touch screen 'tracking" feature so quickly switched over to CAF with burst shots.  It is very difficult to get good shots of birds in flight (they fly soooooo fast).  Even when they are sitting they are constantly moving their head.  I think my aperture setting might have been a bit too low on some shots.  A GREAT learning experience and my first attempt at photographing moving targets.  I might be hooked! Overall I was happy with the performance of my NX1 with the 50-150S lens.  My results were far better than others that I went with.  Some people got so frustrated with their camera they switched to taking photos with their phone.....I didn't get that.
