I'll tell you how old I am. I usually shoot half the game from lst base and the other half from third. I was so tired after walking from the parking lot to the front gate of the stadium I said to myself, myself how about I shoot from only 3rd. The kid I was paid to photograph luck have it had a two for four at the plate so he had a lot of action around second and third. The lady bought 25 shots, unreal. Her friend bought 7. Bishop Gorman has their own so-called photographer but she does shitty work. So be it the tale..

Historically, only the professional 1-series EOS cameras supported auto focus for lenses with maximum apertures smaller than f/5.6. Beginning with the EOS 5DIII release in 2012, Canon has extended the ability to autofocus at f/8 into an increasing number of newer EOS DSLR cameras, now including all 1D series models, the 5DIII, 5DIV, 5DS, 5DS-R, 7DII, 80D, 77D, and Rebel T7i. These Canon EOS bodies feature high density, high precision auto-focus sensors with 45 or more AF points.

Canon L-series lenses share a number of common characteristics. L lenses tend to be more durable, incorporating dust and water-resistant rubber seals in most models. L lenses also contain optics of higher quality, with many lenses containing aspherically ground, fluorite or ultra-low dispersion glass elements. Their front elements do not rotate for the proper operation of some filters, such as circular polarizers. L lenses are often "fast", with maximum apertures commonly f/2.8 or f/4 and never exceeding f/5.6. Prime lenses have a much greater maximum aperture, such as Canon's current 50mm and 85mm L lenses which open to f/1.2. All current L-series lenses have ultrasonic autofocus motors (USM) and extra communication pins, except for the specialist tilt-shift lenses which do not provide autofocus.

Yes, I recognize the 'agedness' of this topic, a discussion of SLR / DSLR technology in 2024, now a few years into the mirrorless revolution.

The EF 300mm f/2.8 lens refers to a family of 300mm telephoto prime lenses made by Canon going back to manual focus versions first released in 1974. The lens is commonly used by sports and wildlife photographers, but is short enough for use in extreme close-up portraits. Because of its rather high native magnification, the EF 300L can also be used for macro type photography.

Introduced in 1987, the EF lens mount is the standard lens mount on the Canon EOS family of SLR film and digital SLR cameras. EF stands for "Electro-Focus". Automatic focusing on EF lenses is handled by a dedicated electric motor built into the lens. Mechanically, it is a bayonet-style mount, and all communication between camera and lens takes place through electrical contacts; there are no mechanical levers or plungers.

When using Canon extenders, Canon recommends the Series III extender be attached first to the lens, before attaching the whole unit to the camera. This ensures the combined lens information is transmitted correctly to the EOS camera to provide the optimum image quality and focus performance.

The Canon EF 500mm f/4L IS II USM was released in 2011. All images employ the EF 2x III Extender extending the focal length by 2x to 1000mm. The Series III Extenders (also commonly called teleconverters) have an integrated microcomputer designed specifically for use with compatible Canon IS Supertelephoto Series II lenses, such as the 500L.

In 1999 Canon released the first f/4 version of the 500L adding camera shake correction (IS - Image Stabilization) effective to 2-stops in terms of shutterspeed.

Canon's super telephoto lenses have a secondary IS mode that automatically senses when a tripod is being used and, at shutter speeds between 1/30th and 1 second, adjusts to compensate for mirror slap, shutter and other subtle tripod-based vibrations. The IS system automatically disables itself during tripod use when shutter speeds longer than 1 second are used. The images shown here were all captured with the 500L mounted to a gimbal head on a tripod stationed at the water's edge on the shore of Lake Michigan in Chicago, IL. The 700mm effective focal length can provide relatively "close" images of single planes and individual parachutists performing over the lake.

Is printing to metal a good choice for wildlife?

This is the first time I will be using Bay Photo to print my bird picture on metal.
I have read everything I can on the subject and still have questions?
1. Not sure if I should print to canvas or metal for wildlife?
2. High Gloss, Mid-Gloss, Satin, Sheer Glossy, Sheer Satin, & Textured
3. Which is better a floating back which pulls the picture from the wall or just wire hang it?
4. I was thinking of going with the rounded corners and no frame?
I have attached a photo of what I’m thinking of printing.
Like to hear your thoughts and advise
