American Flamingoes Squabbling
This image was created on 26 April 2023 at the mud hole at Lac Bay Wetlands on Bonaire in the Caribbean Netherlands. Standing at full height, I used the Robus RC-5558-3 Vantage Series 3 Carbon Fiber Tripod/Levered-Clamp FlexShooter Pro-mounted BLUBB-supported Sony FE 600mm f/4 GM OSS lens, the Sony FE 2.0x Teleconverter, and The One, the Sony Alpha 1 Mirrorless Digital Camera). The exposure was determined via Zebra technology with ISO on the thumb dial. ISO 800. 1/1600 sec. at f/9 (stopped down 1/3-stop) in Manual mode. When evaluated in RawDigger, the raw file brightness was determined to be perfect. AWB at 8:19:12am on a sunny morning. Tracking: Zone with Bird Face/Eye detection enabled performed amazingly well even at 1200mm.
