Shot with a Nikon 200-500 F5.6 on a D500 at 1/640, f5.6, and ISO 100.

I was deer hunting Wednesday, but I always have a camera and long lens with me when these guys came strolling by. The axis deer in the last one is now in my freezer. They are very tasty.


Alandg46, these are great images! The time of day you were shooting (10:00AM--2:00PM?) and the bright sun really bring out the gorgeous color in these birds. Also, that you had the good fortune to be visited by Toms all decked out in their finest was remarkable. I live in San Angelo, and a flock of ten birds occasionally stroll through our neighborhood; however, it's usually during early AM, or during overcast days, or in deep shade (Our street is named "Shady Hill" for a reason!). Images similar to yours are what one day I hope to capture. Well done!!

Jim, I own the Canon 6D, a full-frame camera, and in my photography, I find it indispensable. I do a lot of low-light work for our church, as well as shooting entertainment groups, also in low light. In addition, I shoot programs for a retired teachers organization, and all of that is done in low light conditions. Finally, I take photos for a dinner club group which meets at night in a restaurant (three guesses!) with the worst lighting of all. I prefer to shoot without flash, as I take a lot of shots in all of these arenas, and a flash would be distracting. For years my ASP-C sensor camera of choice has been a Canon 7D, not noted for its high ISO noise-free performance. I'm planning to update very soon with a Canon EOS 80D, which has much improved high ISO/low light performance; however, still not in a league with my full frame 6D. Bottom line--if you do a lot of low light work without flash, you just can't beat a full frame camera. Good luck!

Been reading this site for quite a while but never got in to join it. Well now I have. 75 here - retired, just enjoying retirement. Been hobby photographer for probably 60 years, started with a little "brownie" and had many various cameras since. While serving in the Air Force in the early 60's in Germany in addition to my regular job as a guided missile technician, I also operated the Photo Hobby shop on the base at Hahn, Germany. Did a lot of training on how to develop and print pictures and also served as photo director on various sponsored trips around Europe. Back to today - over the last 15 years I have had a great job as the main game photographer for a local Professional hockey team (Knoxville Ice Bears). Currently use a Canon 7D MII and very happy with it. However also considering trying a Canon EOS-1D X Mark II. I know it is much more expensive, but think it might be a great camera to give a try. Have had 6 previous Canon cameras and been very happy with all of them, just thinking about a new toy! Other than hockey photographer also do a lot of photography in the local mountains which I truly enjoy. My question is - what type of opinions do you all have regarding the Canon EOS-1D X Mark II?

Hope to hear from everyone. (Personal web site: http://www.wknox,net)

Jim, your relevant question may have gotten overlooked by many of us who "quick scan" the commentaries. I, too, am a 74-ish hobby photographer who shoots Canons. I hope some of our EOS-1DX Mark II users will respond to your end-of-comment question, as I would like to know what they think of that top-tier Canon top-tier.

Would love to see it, but there's a problem with the link. The space after "newsandbusiness. _ may be the cause.

What a fantastic hand-held moon shot! Don't see how it could be improved, even with a high-dollar SLR. Well done.
