Hand held w manual focus I

"Shutter Speed = 1/focal length"
I chose Tv w 1/1000 then started trying
to frame and focus on the bee using my
2x TC and 400mm lens..

Note: AF works not at f/11, min stop w this lens racked out
with a 2x TC. So, MF is a must. A gimbal mount would be nice.

Canon EOS 5D Mark II ,Canon EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS USM
1/1000 sec at f/11, ISO 4000, 800mm full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

Thanks. The bee would "lift off" within a second of landing. Fast (& huge) worker. I focused (MF) when it landed, counted to one, and took the shot.
