Now as some of you may be aware, I don't take a lot of bird photo's, especially bif.
My nephew has decided to take up photography, as "Uncle" is always busy or out at weekends taking photos....and he likes birds of prey, so we are off to a local sanctuary to take a few snaps.
So, to my point, any tips? I have researched online, but as usual, there is a lot of contradicting tips, back focusing being one example, some say it's the way to go, others say it's of no use...
I.S is another example, some say it slow's down the af, others that you cant do without it.
Yes...I can do the usual trial and error, and I shall, but if anyone can give me a couple of "must do's" or "do not's" I would be grateful. Also, I have a 5dmk3 now, and not the 7dmk2 so no more spraying lol, but i'll rarely be doing bird photos.
