D800e with 600VR and 2xTCIIIe with subject far away...

Post by Stany Buyle »

Today I did some first trials with D800e and a 600VR + 2xTCIIIe on birds at relative long distance.
Weather conditions were far from perfect, very cold for May(9°C), strong wind which gave camera-lens shake and subject in shadow on a cloudy day...
Further more strong backlight which gave quite a bit of purple fringing...

The scene:

And a 33% crop resized to 1024 longest side:

Camera settings were:

Will be continued in more favorable weather conditions...

Thanks for looking and kindest regards,

Hi Leen,
Yes, on tripod, but as said, terrible wind.
Have a nice weekend!
