In my last two videos, • Why I'm SWITCHING from... and • A day in the field tes... , I talked about why I am moving away from Pentax full frame to Panasonic micro four thirds and subsequently tested the camera in the field on a day trip to the Murray Valley region of Victoria.
In this video I visit the Western Treatment Plant in Werribee, Victoria - a birding Mecca in Australia, particularly for migratory wading birds. These tiny world travellers will be departing our shores in the next few weeks, returning to Siberia and Alaska for their Northern hemisphere breeding season so this was one of the last chances this year to photograph them. It was also a chance to test out the Panasonic G9 and Panasonic Leica 100-400mm f/4-6.3 tele zoom lens.
I hope you enjoy.
