[@wv130553]

Great photo but what were the settings on aperture and ISO or was the ISO on Auto?

[@PangolinWildlife]

Hi. Guts tends to shoot on Manual Mode with Auto ISO.

[@wv130553]

Pangolin Photo Safaris thanks I know but like to know the aparture👍

[@PangolinWildlife]

f8 was the aperture he used.

[@MrJcalais]

So this work on all birds or only certain birds

[@PangolinWildlife]

On all birds theoretically. you will just have to adjust your shutter speed to the wing speed and flap rate of each bird to get the right effect.

[@MrJcalais]

That makes sense! Maybe you could release a Pdf with a list of birds with the shutter ratings for each bird you have found to work !
