    Bridge camera with rapid autofocus and stabilization

    I just happen to have put some pics in a thread at Help in identifying a bird that I was lucky to take snaps of that were taken with a FZ1000. My only regret is that I didn't have the camera set to RAW at the time otherwise they might have been sharper. But absolutely no problem at catching the...

    Bridge camera with rapid autofocus and stabilization

    I have used the FZ1000 and now the FZ1000 II for BIF (birds in flight) quite successfully. Don't underestimate their speed of focusing ability, especially when using the eye focusing feature as well. Basically what that means is as soon as you look through the viewfinder the camera will carry...

    Help in identifying a bird that I was lucky to take snaps of

    Sure. I have selected the ones that hopefully show the Tern from different enough angles for better identification. I left the EXIF info in the pics as well.

    Help in identifying a bird that I was lucky to take snaps of

    Thanks for the info. It's the best set of in-flight action sequence that I have ever taken pictures of, and this shot is one of the most striking that I intend to have printed out so that I can hang it on the wall.

    Help in identifying a bird that I was lucky to take snaps of

    The location was London, England. However I don't recognise it as a local bird. The local lake is frequently used as a stopover by migrating birds. I have sighted several odd ones over the years, but either didn't have a camera with me, or didn't have the zoom range to get a good picture of them.

    Help in identifying a bird that I was lucky to take snaps of

    Three years ago I managed to take a sequence of shots of a bird by our local lake. To say that it was fast and nimble would be an understatement. But I have no idea what bird it is. I am hoping that someone can help me out.

    Teleconverter for FZ330

    There is a far more proven setup mode that is normally used by the m43 camera users, but which also works on bridge cameras like the FZ330. What you have to do is to look in the Camera menu, page 2/7. You'll see AFS/AFF. Set it to AFF. The advanced user manual has detailed information on that on...

    Wearing binoculars while biking

    I have seen cyclists wear them around the nature parks I visit. You just have to type binocular harness in eBay and you'll get a host of different versions.

    Beginner Feedback on FZ330

    Puerto Rico and Jamaica have a healthy bird population and they are only a single engine plane ride away, or maybe even the ferry.

    Teleconverter for FZ330

    The trick with getting the best from Panasonic cameras is in their set up. I have spent ages playing with setting in order to find the quick "idiot proof" ones, and the more specialized ones. In the case of say the FZ330 with the LT55 converter, set the camera to the P mode, ISO to iISO, the...
