Canon SX50 Specs (2 Viewers)

Great shot are you able to give any settings......Eddy

Sure. The sun needs to be set to 'Bright' (and behind), subject set to 'fairly close' fingers set to 'crossed' and the dial on the top set to 'Sports mode'. Frame subject, fire off 275 shots in the blink of an eye and hope to find one that looks half decent when you get home

HTH,

You're right on all of the above Andy, I must admit I only depress the shutter for a couple of shots on "Sports Mode" not the full 13 frames. As , due to it not refocusing during the burst, the only shots that have a chance of being reasonable are the first couple, and nearly always the first shot is the best.

Same here. The 275 shots refer to numerous subjects in numerous locations

A couple more BIF shots. Still a way to improve, but the local Hobby were performing quite well yesterday morning.

I really like the zoom

A couple of shots of a Spotted Flycatcher.The bird was about 7m away perched nicely for me.Taken with full optical zoom and the 1.5 converter on.Only editing was some cropping.Great cameras.

A post some time ago on this thread regarding exposure compensation said you should either expose to the left or to the right I cannot remember which.Anyone remember ? I seem to have to expose to the left even when it's not that bright else I overexpose the whites.

I've uploaded some shots from a recent trip to Florida (and Colorado before that).

Just got back from a week+ in coastal Maine. Lots of wildlife photos all taken with the SX50.

First is a cedar Waxwing full frame.

Second two great Blue Herons at extreme distance.

Third is a non-zoomed photo of the herons. They are at the rock in the center of the photo.

I actually posted a semi-trip report of all the wildlife photos (SX50 only) at this place.

This was a fortuitous shot.

I was at the pond and following a kingbird around as it moved from one perch to another with swoops about the pond between.

I took this shot when it landed and what's that in the background. A wood duck. I would never have seen that wood duck had I not focused in on the kingbird at 100X zoom.

And the wood duck has four chicks.
