White-crowned Sparrow

[Gus Hallgren]

Hi Folks:

Caught this little sparrow in our garden while trying out our less than $300 Lumix digi cam this morning.

The ideal point & shoot would be a Canon G10 with 12X IMHO

CC's welcome and always appreciated

Panasonic DMC - FZ28 18X with Leica 2.8 lens
Aperture Priority: F/5.6, 1/1000s, ISO 100, -1.00eV, Auto WB, 442 mm

Hi Gus - not bad at all for a point and shoot. In what looks like less than ideal conditions.
Looks a little contrasty on my screen - but is sharp - good POse, HA and eye contact. Good catchlight in the eye also.
looking forward to more :)

Great capture uncle Gus. Excellent HA and as Lance points out very sharp.

Hi Gus Main thing on the original is trying to get in sun angle, left side of bird is bright but the right dark !! Does detract form the image. ... fun camera to use !!! have one similar basically for macro !!!
