Very nice images!

As I see that you're a gearhead with a nice assortment of 20mp bodies and a couple of bags-full of lenses - most all of which can make 2.8 - please let the rest of us gearheads know what you shot the tamed big guy with with!

All bar one I used Panasonic Leica 200mm f2.8 for the majority which park cameras at the wildlife weekend they were selling for £1200 what a steal you could of purchased this and sold it on for a profit.
Thanks, but this info trickle-down reminds me of the old saying about blood and turnips!

So was it with the GX8, the G9, or the EM1-II?

That's a pretty neat looking bird Paul. Love the markings and colours of this one. Darn good timing and looking good. Yeah sometimes it pays to back off a bit and crop a little more in PP, but we do get stuck very often. We can't predict what they will do and these came out darn well IMO.

All the best Paul and that is one heck of an interesting bird. love it.
