Hi Keith, I really enjoyed this video, You managed to get some really lovely photos of the Kingfisher. It's my favourite bird and I managed to get a couple of photo's of one at my local pond. Purely on the off chance, not brilliant photo's, but photo's nonetheless. I'm still on the lookout for another one, on my local river and I'm sure that the day will come again for another photo opportunity...😃👍🏻
Great video Keith, some cracking images and footage! I notice some of the stills are taken at 700mm, have you bought the new 200-800 RF lens for your R5? Just wondering what you thought of it? I’m still using my 100-500 on mine and still very happy with it but be nice to have that extra bit of reach 😊 Anyway, another great video, well done 😊👍
Thanks mate. Still using the 100-500 but had the 1.4x converter on for those images. That gives me the 700mm. I know people who have the 200-800 and really like it, like you say always good to have the extra reach. Thanks again mate, cheers Keith.
Hello. Ccould you tell me what the bird is in this video? I thought it was a Water Rail and the uploader thinks it's a Moorhen, but I don't think it's either. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-j54iRFIQMns.html
Great minds think alike, fools never differ . I have just been photographing my local Kingfishers too . Lovely colours Keith and very close awesome shots 👍
Remember that encounter Keith, only had one at very close range in a natural setting in the last 40+ years still can remember it as if it was yesterday. The good light also gave it that little bit extra zing on its plumage. 😊
