Post your best bird shots!

These 4 hummingbird pics are to compare my 7DII and 5DIII at high ISO. Both were shot at min focus distance at ISO 3200 with a 400mm f5.6L + EF 1.4II extender . 7DII images were croped to 16X9 , so just a littl off the top and bottom 5DIII images were resized to make comparing easier.I finally figured out that most of my focusing issues with the 7DII was due to AFMA being off. I used focal pro and tried 8 times using a gazillion shots and it always said -11 was the correct adjustment. I picked up a spider lenscal target and -11 was off quite a bit. -4 seems just perfect. I have since used focal again and it still says -11. anyways , see if you can tell which pic is from which camera before looking on flickr.

I think you need to AFMA Focal Pro.

Seriously though... you should call Focal and see what they say. That is a lot of time you wasted.
