Also, dial back on shutter speed. 1/3200 should be more that enough with large birds. Once you have more experience you can probably bring that down another stop in shutter speed as well.Thanks. That’s the feed back I need.
D7500, 200-500 f5.6. 720 mm, f5.6, iso 1000, 1/8000. D9 focus.
so I leaned some lesions from this image. First, check all the camera settings. Without knowing, I had exposure bracketing enabled, not what I wanted. I wanted to shoot in manual with auto ISO, but was defeated but the exposure bracketing. Next, I’ve learned that the 200-500 is too clumsy to track birds in flight. I just received a 500 pf that I hope will be better.
so each attempt is a learning experience
