BIF Osprey with 40-150PRO + 1.4x
8

I'm no BIF expert, in fact this is the first time I've tried it with this combo. But, I liked the results and thought I would share these photos and how I shot them. These beautiful Osprey were at Nimisila Reservoir in Akron, OHIO.

I had to paddle out to this location and all photos were shot from a kayak (good thing for splash proof:-).)  I used an EM-1 and 40-150 2.8 PRO + 1.4x converter.  The BIF's were shot at 1/2000 at f/4.  I used C-AF with the center 9 AF points, back button AF.  For the stationary I slowed the shutter to around 1/1000 and used S-AF with a single small AF point. Heavy crops.
