    Well done young man, you stuck to your guns, found a great lens at a budget price, learned to use it and cope with the weight. Capturing the beautiful kingfisher for the first time is a wonderful experience, I could feel your emotion. Great Stuff, look forward to the next video. 😊

      Thanks, I do feel like i'm in a new ear for my wildlife photography and more experienced, but still learning which is the best way

    It is definately more satisfying when you have to work at it. Well done Russ.

    Well done! Wonderful kingfisher pics 👍
    Mike Lane FRPS has done a great RUclips vid on photographing kingfishers, well worth a look.
    Highly recommend his channel full stop. Proper old time bird photographer.

    I used to live by the Lea Valley park and kingfishers were reasonably common there. Not that I ever got a decent photo, I wasn't quick enough with my old manual 300 2.8!

      They do fly by in a flash! Even the filming of it flying away was in 5x slow mo

      @@RussandLoz where I now live in Christchurch New Zealand, our local kingfishers are pretty common especially now in winter when they gather for a yarn before becoming territorial again. They aren't as vibrant as the European, but they are just as quick! Fun fact: they are closely related to the kookaburra!

    Russ do you not run with 2 autofocus buttons l have one for stationary @ 1/320 then one for birds in flight @ 1/3200. You could not have got a better perch if you tried lovely.

      On the Z8 programme one of your function buttons to recall setting, you can select a fast shutter speed and toggle between the two with one button press
