These are small and fast birds. Handheld

A6600+Sig 100-400

Thanks. Regarding the Hi-Res shot. Yes, I could've changed settings but then the bird may have flown etc. ISO is not always indicitive of how much noise a picture will have this was at 800 ISO, I ...

I can't say this has been a great year for raptors so far but one evening I got this Coopers playing tag with crows. The conditions were not the best with shadows, trees and little open room but ...

I'm new to Sony but have used other mirrorless cams. Anyways, I read somewhere that the Sony Zone AF is like the Nikon Group Focus. I'd have to agree but I think it's better too. Having a good AF ...

I read somewhere that the Sony Zone AF is like the Nikon Group Focus. I'd have to agree but I think it's better too. Having a good AF is one thing but you also need a fast focusing lens and this ...

Oh yeah! Yeah and your mother .... !

Nice review. I just moved over from the Nikon D500 + 200-500 to the Sony Mirrorless system. I was thinking about it last summer when the A6400 came out but there was no inexpensive telephoto lens ...

I am interested in either this smallrig for the A6600 or a leather half case. The only reason I'm looking is because my thumb constantly hits the control wheel or parts of, thus activating options ...

Yay.... that worked! Thanks so much danny006

Junior Pileated Woodpecker. The squirrel spooked him. I have a lot of shots of these birds over the years but this is one of my favorites.

the biggest problem for my aging body is the 200-600s weight and it's cost as I'm on a fixed income.

You have some nice shots and i really liked this Kit while I had it(A6600+200-600) Now I have the A6600+Sig 100-400 DN and other than reach really like it! I don't have large hands, maybe a little ...

Well ... there haven't been many other posts to this thread so I guess everyone loves this lens :/ I'm starting to find that shots around a bird lift off are tracking really well and showing an ...

My default focus area is centre and I've programmed the lens button to tracking on. It's a bit cumbersome as there is only 1 button and it's not positioned for easy access and maybe with ...

My default focus area is centre and I've programmed the lens button to tracking on. It's a bit cumbersome and maybe with memory/recall it can be better but I got this shot early this morning on a ...

Yes it's the DN (e mount) with the button :)

I haven't had this cam long and it's my first mirrorless. I've got the Sigma 100-400 lens button set to tracking on but you have to hold it down till your finished. The button isn't in a natural ...

Sony Alpha Blog just reviewed this lens ( https://sonyalpha.blog/2020/07/21/sigma-100-400mm-f5-6-3-dg-dn-os-contemporary/ ) My day 2 with the lens and I'm much happier with the BIF tracking results. ...

This is no review but compared to the DSLR version the AF is better, the OS stabilization on 1 is fine which means theres no rush to get the new USB Dock. I was not wowed by the raw shots but ...
