Birding in urban park with Oly 40-150 f2.8 + MC-14
4

Recently got the Oly 40-150 f2.8 with the MC-14. I took it to a local urban park to test its birding capability and am quite happy with the results. This is a park within downtown Hong Kong and is surrounded by skyscrapers (something like central park in New York but much smaller), so the birds are quite used to seeing a lot of people and I can get really close to them. 420mm FF focal length is quite enough for the job in this environment. However, for a "real wildlife environment" in the rural area, I think this lens will be on the short side of things and longer focal length lens is required unless you are shooting something big like deer, etc. All JPG straight out of my EM10 Mk II with no editing except cropping. Comments and advice are always welcome.
