This saturday I have had the chance to take my 300 f/4 for a test run. I did some shooting of the birds in my backyard and feeder (Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania). It was freeezing....
Note: None of these photos have been post-processed. However, they are a heck of a lot sharper than they look on TDP.
Oh well, please give any comments and suggestions you like. I need advice! Still learning how to operate my new equipment.
Am I using correct shutter, ISO, aperture, etc for this use?
thanks for your help!
