those red eyes. More like some kind of Grebe though rather than a duck. Those red eyes are amazing!Those are some devilish ducks
Gees, I'm glad I'm not the snack! Stunning shot.
Beautiful shot!
Thank you!Beautiful shot!
I'm pleasantly shocked you were able to get these shots with that screw-y-focusing lens!First shots with the Sony A350. Lousy light but couldn't wait to try it out. These are with the Minolta 100-400 APO. Not super pleased with the noise, evidently this camera doesn't do well at ISO 800. Took more NR than I'd like. Shots I was able to overexpose fared a bit better.
Evidently the Carolina Wren is a Wrens.

Finally caught the Bluejay. He's usually in and out in a second.

I have 12 A-Mount lenses and use them extensively on my E-Mount cameras. The newer LA-EA5 adapter is fantastic, much better than the older adapters. It's a shame it will only work on Sony's more recent bodies. I use it on my A74 but have to use an LA-EA4 on my A7RIII. The difference is night and day. Depending on the lens some aren't much different than using an E-Mount. The Minolta 80-200/2.8 APO HS G is an example. It will track and AF just like an E-Mount. It would probably suffer with a faster camera like an A9 or A1, but it has no problem keeping up with the A74. I use the combination for my lower light evening shots at the drag strip.I'm pleasantly shocked you were able to get these shots with that screw-y-focusing lens!
Doesn’t look to shabby at all! You seem to have managed the noise well.First shots with the Sony A350. Lousy light but couldn't wait to try it out. These are with the Minolta 100-400 APO.
