Ryukyu Robin

Found this little cutie in thick forest at the end of the day so bumped up the ISO to 3200.

Looks great Richard. scares the tar out of me thinking about going that high, but hay it worked for you!!

Thanks very much. I was trying flash today for only the second time. So heavy carrying around the camera, lens, bracket and flash...but I think it definitely has potential. Anyway when I found this lovely bird at the end of the day. I was shooting away only to realize that the flash batteries were dead. This following shot was completely underexposed and dark as a result. I've played around in PP and am quite happy with the final result.

Me too, but it definitely looks great. I will have to try it.

That was a good result. You can see less noise in the iso 3200 shot than the under exposed iso 400 pp shot.
