Flying Birds at 560 mm

Tested the 20D + 400 5.6L + Tamron 1.4x TC at flying birds. It focuses well in AI servo even at f/8 - a little bit slower than when bare, but still faster than the bare Bigma. Initial target acquisition at 560 mm is somehow challenging though. Note that the TC is not recognized by the body, so aperture appearing in the EXIF should be lessened by one stop and correct focal length is of course 560 mm.

Excellent work Romy. I have tried photographing birds in flight with very limited success. These are all clean and sharp.
