That's and excellent closeup!

Thank you - first time I've managed to get so close to one!

I love Grebes and this photo shows them off so beautifully.
A lovely capture with beautiful composition.

Thank you - they are lovely, and it's great to catch them between their regulat deep dives!

With shots like these, you sure you need R5?

Hope the warranty covers the R5 repair job.

The flight sequences of this bird were really hampered by the slower frame rate of the 5DIV. These are from this morning. I was wishing I had the R5 when the bird was feeding. Too fast for the 5DIV. But somewhat static (well kingfishers arent exactly static) subjects are the 5DIV's sweet spot, where it excels. Don't need the frame rate! BTW these are cropped!

Why I went to R5 from 5D IV, more keepers due to more opportunities didn't lose.... Still love my 5D IV, so I'm not parting with it. But R5 is so fun to shoot with.
