Thanks for this episode. I'll be trying to return to Woodlands Historic Park again. I definitely want to see (and take a decent photo) of the male Red-capped Robin. Thanks for your advice; I did get a Scarlet Robin right at the end of the day.
Hi, how does the 200-600mm perform handheld on the A7Riv ? Do you face any problems when using handheld ? Not BIFs but like with mammals like bigcats etc in India, Africa. Thank You
I prefer not to hand hold at 600mm because any movement at all is hugely magnified. It is possible if you have very steady hands but introduces the risk of a lot more error. If you are doing large mammals I would recommend using a bean bag or other for support. With my tripod and gimbal head I can use the lens at around 100-160s with no issues providing the subject is stationary.
Thanks for sharing. The little Red-cap is my most favourite of the 'red' Robins. . .
I think maybe mine too
Beautiful bird! Thank you for sharing! Great video!
Thanks so much for watching
Nice video Frans..❤️
Thanks!
