Ramamohan: I am no expert on lenses and am still learning. I am still curious what this shot would have looked like at 1/360th. I am assuming you where zoomed in all the way at 300mm. I use the 1/focal length rule to eliminate camera shake when hand holding the camera. I have also read use of a tripod gains you 2-4 stops of shutter speed depending on tripod quality and conditions such as wind etc. I understand the max sync speed limited your shutter speed in this situation. That is a problem I also have. I will soon be investing in a Canon Speedlight flash that will alow me to shoot at these faster speeds. I guess what I really would like to know is if the problem with this shot is really do to light scattering in a consumer grade lens or a tiny amount of camera shake, or some of both. I do think 1/180th is too slow to hand hold at 300mm. It would be great to see the same shot with the same exposure with your lens vs. a prime 300mm

Hello Pat, First of all thanks for visting and also your comments.
This was a handheld shot at 1/180th of a second which is the flash sync speed for D100. I used flash to put a catchlight in the eye of the birds.
Its likely there is some shake in the picture as it always happens with any handheld shot. But my comment was more about the details in the feathers of the birds. You see that the feathers have not come out well and look as if they are stuck to each other. The crispiness is just not there.

Impressive shot, the composition and DOF are perfect. I have that lens too, and I'm looking to change it whenever I can afford a new one, but this is a great example of what a good photographer can do even with a bad lens. Keep it up!

great shot my friend.I think that even those expensive fix focals need f8 to be very sharp too.
Thanks for posting.

I really like this shot. I struggle with the same lens issues as you. Who's got 4K to spend on a lens? However I wonder if shutter speed was working against you here too. just a little bit of camera shake perhaps. Was this hand held or on a tripod? I shoot with a 75-300mm Canon with a cheap 2X Teleconverter. If I get good light and can shoot at 1/750th or faster the results will be good. Dosen't happen as much as I would like. The composition in the shot is spectacular!

Ok, I just can't but give 7/7 on this one. You did a superb job using a really crappy tool (I had that lens, I know). Now do yourself a favor, buy a 300mm f/4 or even f/2.8 AFS. You deserve it (you photo speaks for it!). Once again, lovely work!
