The first four images were shot at an ISO above 51,000 before dawn. I manipulated the images greatly to try to mask the flaws. The second four images were taken at 10,000 ISO in very limited morning light without sun. I used my normal processing and noise reduction on these images. With the 800mm F11, lighting is critical, and so is good photographic technique. In my case, my poor technique shows up quickly. Note: this is not intended as a test, but as mere examples, of what results one might get, with a point and shoot technique. Thanks for viewing.

You have some really nice shots there Dan - looks like the 800mm lens is a winner.

Very interesting photos, Dan! Is that a fixed f11?


Yes, it is a relatively a inexpensive lens for the range. It is also light and easy to handhold. I also posted birds on a pond, and they were all taken with this lens.

I am thinking of getting either the 600 or 800 for my R7 and R6II. I have only heard/read great reviews on these lightweight low cost lenses. Great birds shots, and atmospheric effects.


I also posted birds on a pond with photos using this lens.

I also have this lens and have captured some really good shots, as well as many really bad ones during low light conditions. Another thing I've noticed is that atmospheric conditions can also be a factor. Last fall I was photographing pronghorns on a pretty bright partially sunny day. Photos were really soft no matter what I did. Then I started playing with my new spotting scope. With its increased magnification and large optics, the problem revealed itself. Even though the temp was in the 60s, there were heat waves between me and the pronghorn which was throwing off the camera/lens focus and quality.

Not to bad considering. The bird photos are pretty decent from where I view them.
