Birds In Flight - Post Yours!

[Jeff WX1USN]

The more I use the R5ii the more impressed I am. Other than poor High ISO performance it blows away the R6ii. And with DxO Pure Raw 5 it helps with the high ISO but it does lose a bit of detail. This was shot at 1/2500 f/7.1 ISO 6,400 at 500mm
The thing today I was able to lock onto swallows that I wasn't able to with the R6ii. It is an impressive camera!

Birds are well photographed but seem a bit bright. Maybe darken them just a little bit?

Toned down the birds, hopefully not too much

I'm no expert, but birds look better to me, not so washed out.

I am just amazed at the R5ii's ability to get them in focus! Maybe a tad lighter on the wings, I have 2,000 shots to go through from this morning, it is going to take a while
