Also, panning is a good technique to be used for in focus capture.
Just my 2 cents and hope it helps.
p.s. post some shots.
Hi
Monopod is not going to be possible.
Panning seems a good idea but I'm still a very new pentax slr newbie and I don't master panning as good as I like.
High iso + AF-c was what I have used
... hmmmm, seems I must try again with the same tools.
Meanwhile, someone told me about "trap in focus".. Can I use it in this situation ? how ?
Damn, that eagle really fly fast. "Terrible" feeling seeing her passing so near, so fast, to the handler on my left.
Thanks for the input
p.s. - still have photos in card (I still shoot raw
) but will try to take care of them soon and after PPG (decline them) I will post some here
