I'd like your participation in a little fun test please!
After a day of fettling, testing, and generally musing on photographic issues, I have just gone outside and shot two images of a cooperative Starling on a chimney stack. One is shot with a Sigma 150-500 at 500mm, the other is shot with a 70-200mm at 200mm and then cropped-in to give approximately the same field of view. I've then processed them both almost exactly the same in Lightroom, and then output them as attached (without the EXIF!).
Now, my question to you is : At typical screen-resolution is there an obvious difference between the two, and if so, which is "better"?
No.1:-
No.2:-
EOS 6D AV mode, ISO400, f/8, 1/1,000 & 1/750
