These were all taken in Candaba on February 28, 2011. The other interesting birds that day were Common Teal, Oriental Pratincole, and Tufted Duck. But, they were too far away to get good shots. White Breasted Waterhen f5.6, iso 1600, 1/640, handheld from car window Chestnut Munia f6.3, iso320, 1/320, handheld from car window Common Kingfisher f9, iso640, 1/800, tripod Spotted Dove f8, iso 320, 1/800, handheld from car sunroof Philippine Duck f8, iso320, 1/160, tripod Canon 5dMark2, 300 2.8, 2x t.c. |

Very nice set, Sylvia. The 300+2xTC setup looks sharp.  |

Thanks!
It made a big difference when I changed the body! The 300 + 2x set-up didn't work well with the 7d. Ely T. even asked me before why I wasn't using a 2x, and I said it was because it was soft. I wasn't using my 5D then because it's full frame and the shots looked "far".

Those are great shots Sylvia. The 300 f2.8 handles a 2x TC very well. |

Maybe the lighting conditions were better this time. I noticed that my pictures are a lot better if the sun is shining and its early morning. Happy for you that you got good results. Well done Sylvia & Mabuhay.

The 7D? hmm .. maybe it's the lens+7d calibration? I'd like to calibrate all my lenses using something like the Lenscal.

Wonderful set as always Sylvia.
May I suggest that you bring the combo to the Service Center and have it calibrated with your 7D. I'm sure it's just a matter of calibration. Have it calibrated with the TC attached if you're going to use it always with the TC.
