M6 Mark II and Sigma 100-400 C / Some Kingfisher Photos
21

That was my last time out birding with the lens. I sold it and bought a 150-600 C lens. I hope I won't miss the 100-400 because it's a great little lens.

Sweet birdie!  I’ve never gotten that close to one around here.  Looks like the lens did very nicely.  Good luck with your new (biggie) lens!

Thanks. I spent some time lying on the sand under some camo blanket to get close. Yesterday I went to the spot again and had great success with the 150-600 C, too. I might also share those pics once I edit them.

Wow - amazing shots.

So smooth and noise free as well - are these in camera jpeg? DxO Deepprime?

Really beautiful shots here! Did you find the AF worked well for this type of shooting?
