So they are under a tree. Not much light or reach, 70-300 5.6.
I can't get too close, if they see me they're gone into the den. Plus I don't want to stress them or momma. Any ideas on the numbers, or processing? I told my wife I need a bigger lens and she agreed with a smirk.

This one at F8 1/800 ISO 800 300MM. Processed and heavy crop.


I would set up on tripod and use my app on my phone to remote trigger.

Cool, I'd vote for the lens and a teleconverter

They are so cute, to be a Fox. We had a Kit Fox that would come out at night and visit us at the power plant as it was being constructed. They are normally very shy, this is a great picture. Thanks for sharing.

Your welcome and your right they are very shy and hard to catch.

Nice image. For ideas, a 2x is not compatible with this 70-300 lens, can't be physically connected as well as losing AF if it could. Looking at the image, try using a slower shutter for a mostly static subject and work on exposing to the right. The grain isn't because of ISO-800 (and distance / crop), rather: the image is underexposed at ISO-800. Try 1/500 keeping f/8 and ISO-800 for the same light, position and distance. You'll have less grain (captured in RAW) and see what you can tease out a different result from a brighter original exposure. You're in aperture priority, use EC to push the exposure to +1 over the zero mark that will cause a slower shutter assuming a fixed ISO.

I went back over the whole set and realize that I had one at 1/320 with all else the same. I think you were correct as the shot looks better exposure wise and sharpness. But I will use the EC in future shots.
