Dear diary, what a day it's been...
Here are a few images with the camera taken a few weeks ago in NE India. For the birder who wants a smallish lightweight camera with huge zoom and attendant working image stabilisation this is the one to go for!
It allows me to remain a birder first and foremost BUT pull in those record shots!
Some of these birds were a long way off almost all were at 600mm zoom and all were hand held. Set correctly you can focus right in on the bird without intervening vegeation getting in the way. It performs well in low light, as the spotted laughingthrush and plain backed thrush images show...on both ocasions the light was pretty poor .
