There was too much room on the top, so it was cropped 20% from above. The Osprey was approaching in such a great speed that I did NOT have the time to think. For this kind of grab shot, all one could do is shoot with reflex and experience; ask questions later ...     Best kk ---------- http://www.geocities.com/kkhui_001 « Last Edit: Mar 26th, 2003, 9:56pm by KK Hui » Logged Daniel CK Chan BBS Member BBS God I love nature photography!     Gender: Posts: 794 Re: Osprey 魚鷹 « Reply #4 on: Mar 26th, 2003, 11:06pm » Quote Modify Really cool, KK!   I can't resist to take my 10D to field but having to work . I am waiting to see you more stunning digital photos.   I also want to test thoroughly the 10D AF speed against my 1V, especially the group and small birds in flight.   See you in the field later     Regards Daniel Logged Daniel CK Chan http://www.danielckchan.com Hendrix BBS Member BBS God I love wings!     Gender: Posts: 1001 Re: Osprey 魚鷹 « Reply #5 on: Mar 26th, 2003, 11:47pm » Quote Modify   So , KK will you use DSLR more than film ?

I still need to bring two body (1 DSLR + 1 SLR, 20+lbs) for bird photography.  It is in fact the "top" SLR body still having better AI servo speed, no doubt.   I will keep my D60 and wait for next generation of 1D.   Logged KK Hui BBS Member BBS God Bird Photography - at its best ...     Posts: 940 Re: Osprey 魚鷹 « Reply #9 on: Mar 27th, 2003, 11:00am » Quote Modify on Mar 27th, 2003, 9:06am, ka-sing wrote: I will keep my D60 and wait for next generation of 1D.     The next generation of 1D is already with us and is called EOS-1Ds!!!!   At over $55k it's hard to justify for one of this machine ...  As I said, in time we will see higher technology with less cost.   Best kk ----------- http://www.geocities.com/kkhui_001   Logged ka-sing BBS Member BBS Junior Member I am new!     Gender: Posts: 11 Re: Osprey 魚鷹 « Reply #10 on: Mar 27th, 2003, 11:12am » Quote Modify on Mar 27th, 2003, 11:00am, KK Hui wrote: The next generation of 1D is already with us and is called EOS-1Ds!!!!   At over $55k it's hard to justify for one of this machine ...  As I said, in time we will see higher technology with less cost.   I know 1Ds, but it cannot reach 8fps (1D speed) but with higher resolution.  I think I need a camera in higher fps, rather than high resoultion, in the future.  The resolution of D60 is enough for A3 printing.  I tried some A3 printout by D60 original file and the result is good.   If 1D cost me around 20k, I will go for it for better AF and high fps. « Last Edit: Mar 27th, 2003, 11:13am by ka-sing » Logged Daniel CK Chan BBS Member BBS God I love nature photography!     Gender: Posts: 794 Re: Osprey 魚鷹 « Reply #11 on: Mar 27th, 2003, 2:05pm » Quote Modify [quote author=KK Hui My EOS-10D really is just a toy for me at the moment to enter the digital rush.

[/quote]   KK,   I am really waiting for the performance of RVP 100.  I have only one body in last USA trip and changing RVP and RDP in the field is terrible. However, EOS1V is still my main camera for overseas trip in near future and 10D will be the backup. The only trouble is the weight of my backpack.........   DSLR is a computer. Let's wait for the reasonably pricing 'Flagship' DSLR for our enjoying wildlife photography.   Regards Daniel   PS. I know that digital photos are not accepted in some wildlife photography contest yet such as BBC Wildlife Photography Competition. « Last Edit: Mar 28th, 2003, 1:13am by Daniel CK Chan » Logged Daniel CK Chan http://www.danielckchan.com KK Hui BBS Member BBS God Bird Photography - at its best ...     Posts: 940 Re: Osprey 魚鷹 « Reply #12 on: Mar 27th, 2003, 4:52pm » Quote Modify Thanks for your comments Daniel and Sing!   I still think that shooting slides has its edge in terms of resolution and the almost 3-D effect image you get. With the new Fuji RVP 100 soon to be made available, I'm excited too. Just to share my own experience, I never find the need for 8 fps even for my flight shots    Maybe I was trained to use film wisely.

Food for thought ...     Thanks for share again!   I seldom use "high" mode for my SLR during bird photography, however, the 3fps speed for 10D/D60 is a little bit slower.  If it can reach 5fps and it would be great enough for me!   One point I forget, is the time lag for shutter and it is not good for my D60 (0.2x second) and I need to "predict" the "trend" of the bird......   Logged Hendrix BBS Member BBS God I love wings!     Gender: Posts: 1001 Re: Osprey 魚鷹 « Reply #14 on: Mar 28th, 2003, 12:24am » Quote Modify For flying bird, you can never WYSIWYG, you must "predict" it movement.   for me , I use RAW, 我發現連拍很易打滿了緩衝記憶，錯失想拍的畫面，我手指已練得很快（相對於ni kon），不開連拍，更易捉到想拍的畫面 勤練功比 system 可靠   Logged www.look.hk welcome you Pages: 1 2  Reply Send Topic Print Forum Jump: ----------------------------- Announcement 簡訊通告 -----------------------------  - Membership Affair 會員事務   - Outings / Activities 戶外活動 / 講座   - Projects 項目計劃   - Crested Bulbul Club 紅耳鵯俱樂部 ----------------------------- Discussion Area 討論區 -----------------------------  - General 一般問題   - Conservation 自然保育   - Bird Identification 鳥類辨識   - Birding Reports & Tips 觀鳥報告及心得 => Photo Gallery 相片分享 I   - Photo Gallery 相片分享 II ----------------------------- Special Topics 特別主題 -----------------------------  - Wild Birds & Avian Flu 野鳥與禽流感   - Sustainable Management Scheme in Long Valley 塱原可持續生態管理計劃   - Black-faced Spoonbill 黑臉琵鷺   - Goodbye Penfold 告別彭福   - Tern Conservation 燕鷗保育   - Black-eared Kite 鳶(麻鷹)   - Swifts and Swallows 燕與雨燕   - China Birdwatching Network 中國觀鳥活動網絡   - Winter Altas Survey 冬季鳥類普查   - Nature Conservation Policy 自然保育政策 ----------------------------- Knowledge Sharing 知識分享 -----------------------------  - FAQ 常見問題   - Archive 資料重溫 « Previous topic | Next topic »
