Great pictures once again!
Hi Redpit ,
The camera was tripod supported [ carbon fiber , heavy duty ] Gimbal head , no Shake Reduction , Manual mode , AFC focusing , I use the rear AF button on continuous with shutter button disabled for focus . I also use slow burst rate if needed . One thing though is i remove my thumb from the AF button when i am taking photos of birds on sticks and then quickly AF again while not taking shots then off again . The exception is BIF and tracking a subject . I do this so the camera is not madly trying to focus and introducing potential vibration when you do not really need it such as a bird that is moving but not jumping around . Honestly i have sometimes left Shake Reduction on while on my tripod and have never noticed any negative effects to the image . Hope this helps , i am happy to help with any other queries , but i am not always at home so i will catch up when needed .
Regards Anthony .
