    Sardinia July 2023

    Using Canon R6 in full frame versus cropped mode?

    Background, I use an EF 100-400 mark 2 zoom lens with the Canon R6, always shooting raw. One of the R6 options is Full Frame versus crop at 1.6x (or other aspect ratios), and some articles suggest that choosing 1.6x is equivalent to adding a 1.6 telephoto converter. In theory this is an...

    Kakum NP, Ghana - Canopy Walk, November 2022

    Such a good location for birds, but although the canopy walk puts you 25m above ground, you are still 50m of more horizontally from the surrounding tall trees. If your bird is silhouetted against bright sunshine, photography is challenging . . . Still, we had about 60 species on view that...

    Chicaque NP Colombia

    Thanks all for the IDs on my previous post. It just goes to show that even with great local guides, you don't always get accurate identification on the spot, sometimes you need the photo to study in detail. Anyway, the same day in November 2021 we finished up in Chicaque National Park and I...
