Got lucky yesterday to grab some shots at my garden of the very active Golden-bellied Flyeater (Gerygone sulphurea), a tiny bird that's a perpetual motion machine.
For every shot that's motion blur-free, I've to throw away about ten because of the slow shutter speeds allowed by the ambient lighting (I avoid using flash at birds)...
Both pics taken with the 20D + Sigmonster, manual exposure, RAW in ACR.
800 mm, 1/80 sec, f/8, ISO 400
800 mm, 1/125 sec, f/8, ISO 400
