Any chance we could see the original? The copy and paste is a little distracting imo.

Lame-Duck I have indeed had pine nuts  More info Post edited over 5 years ago by Lame-Duck.

You have a 5D4, maybe get your ISO up to get the shutter speed higher @ 1000mm? Not sure what else could be the cause. Thank you very much, Jake. I had to hand hold it, and at my age (73), it doesn't usually work too well with a 2XTC. I really screwed up by running my ISO too low, and not having a higher shutter speed. I had hoped that image stabilization would have come to the rescue. LD, or Mike

I had hoped that image stabilization would have come to the rescue.  Those shots with the bird flying towards you are a real challenge for focusing. I'm not familiar with Canon, but on Nikon you can manually control the aperture and speed, but allow auto ISO. Works great if you need to up the speed quickly.

I'm not familiar with Canon, but on Nikon you can manually control the aperture and speed, but allow auto ISO. Works great if you need to up the speed quickly. By the way, there, youngster - I'm 75! We old timer-shooters have to stick together. Lee...I do have auto ISO in manual mode just like Nikon. It works great when the background doesn't change. With birds in flight that drop down from a sky background to one with trees for example, the auto ISO doesn't work well. The camera's metering system now sees a darker overall scene, so the auto ISO will increase, causing the subject to be badly overexposed. In this type of situation with birds in flight, I set the ISO between 400 and 800 (depending on the lighting and what my histogram tells me). So in manual mode, with the ISO set, the bird can go from sky to a dark background, and it will still be exposed correctly, as long as it is receiving the same amount of light as it was with the sky background. This is one of the things that Art Morris has emphasized, and I've found that he's pretty much right about that. LD, or Mike
