squirrels and 70-200 f4

[loebas]

He surprised me, had the above lens mounted and got him.
Taken with Aperature 4.0 Shutterspeed 1000 and iso 400 at 200 mm.
Those animals are really fast and very difficult to get at once
Cropped it and posted the picture.
Ps is straight form camera no PS.
What do you think ?

Leave some nuts out with a note asking him to hold still for a few minutes.

It must be a pretty damn serious crop to get blurry results like that with the 70-200mm L. It looks to me like a 100% crop given the shadow noise. Maybe you should get a 1.4x converter for some more reach? Even if you don't conduct work in PS, you need to conduct capture sharpening of your images.

Use fill flash...............Or wait till they step into the light. These shots are quite terrible actually ( Sorry )............. :-( It looks like the focus could also be a bit off.

What camera were you using??

Don't get caught baiting the wild animals. Against the law you know ;)

Squirrels too fast and too difficult too shoot? I must be as fast as superman as I caught this one with a 28mm lens without cropping the result :D.
