Georgia Hummers

[HE15MAN]

Had a chance to get a few Ruby Throated Hummingbird shots over Labor Day Weekend in Waycross Georgia. How do you think I did?

Using Canon T2i and EF 70-200 f/4 L

You did ok, but fill flash would have helped the shots tremendously.

Those appear to be either out of focus or in need of sharpening or have slight motion blur due to shutter speed. You have a great lens that should deliver tack sharp images.

The shutter speed was very fast in all of them. These little guys move nonstop and very fast. Most of the blur issues was due to the fact I had to have the iso turned up so high to get a shutter speed above 1/3200. I shot all of these with manual focus, which is very very hard to do on something moving so fast and sporadically.

Failed attempt at humor. Sorry I am trying to get better

I know I can't be the only one disappointed after entering this thread.

So was I. I thought a new girl entered the industry.


Glad this was moved to the DP forum. Now you can get the help you need.
