Bush Stone Curlew - hand held test
This was a bit of a test to see how low I could shoot Handheld with the 200-400 with the VR turned on
Used 800 ISO as that is what i am normally set at...
I did try lower than this but couldn't get much in the way of a sharp shot - at this speed sharp shots would have been about 50%

Well done Mr. Peters...It's sharp...congrats...I like the reflection in the eye...:cool:
Wow that's a steady hand or very good VR! Love the eye.
Amazing. I see I need to keep practicing. I searched to find your reflection in the eye; you must have been just off-angle. Does "hand held" mean no bracing against anything?
This much FL (+tc) over a slow shutter amazing detail for HH
Hi Lance!

Best,
