Brightness and contrast. Best results to find birds means changeing these "exposure values" manually by try and error.The view finder's image is a bit sharper than the saved images, also do the birds' movements help to locate them. The distances are estimated and without liability <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" />- Eurasian Magpie on the rooftop: 30m- short-toed treecreeper: 90m (two pedestrians in the right corner, the tiny white spot in the center is the treecreeper creeping up the oak's trunk. Two meters below at about 7 o'clock is a second tiny spot, that's a coal tit. As these points are moving it's easy to find them in reality)- squirrel: 25m- 7 birds in the bushes: 15m (coal tits and blue tits, with my bare eye I just could see 4 of them)- Carrion crow: 30mHope it could help somewhat..Cheers <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
