Re: Capturing Wildlife with a 60D

Thanks. The IS allows me to take photos at less than a 1/100th of a second hand-held, especially if I have a chance to brace the camera and lens.

I was a little surprised that the Canon T3i (600D) camera did that well with that telephoto lens. I thought about getting a Canon 70D if that combination did not work out.

With JPEGs I stay with one picture style. This is a hobby for me, so I don't get too particular for different types of pictures. I put the sharpness on the high side, but sometimes I think some of my photos are too sharp particularly on sunny days. So I can understand how someone would want to adjust the Picture Styles each time.

Here's one at 1/80th of a second at full focal length (braced).
