是日海鮮 Fresh catch of the day / 亞洲水鳥捕魚記 Asian Waterbird catching fish / 香港自然 Nature in Hong Kong / SML.20130809.7D.49421.P1
Of course, I shot a whole lot of this bird in flight. I have wanted to do a video, but I am not skilled at videography, so instead I thought that I would utilise the 7D’s 8fps to collect a range of stills to potentially create a stop-motion video of them.
These were shot handheld using AI Servo with the IS in Mode 1 as it was handheld, but I do wonder if I should have shot in Mode 2 perhaps — though in previous attempts when I shot in Mode 2 for some eagles, they did not come out sharp enough.
You see the birds are quite fast — here although the shutter speed is at 1/640 sec, it still does not appear to be fast enough. Perhaps I should look into shooting with Tv instead of Av for birds in the future.
For this I also tried out the well-hyped “camera shake reduction” filter inside Photoshop CC and decided to not process with it after seeing the result — it is rather artefact laden. I supposed that it would have some use for some if you intend the photo to be outputted in lower resolution, though for 1:1 output I think that those noise are quite noticeable.
