Re: Brooklands lake

Hi Dunlin,

The third and especially the last photo are super shots. With the coot was that the only photo you took????

You'll find wildlife shots are hard to nail focus wise, you're moving the ducks moving, you've camera shake as well. Don't trust your focusing system either, thats why I've almost 70,000 photos using my 7D mkII that has a great focusing system. I need sharp pictures and the only way I can guarantee sharp is to take more photos, there will be one that you'll look at that makes you smile.

And by the way I think the 7D's shutter is good for about 150,000 actuations so don't panic yet.
