Flaming Sunbird at Mt. Makiling

Fatbirder's Top 1000 Birding Websites

Thanks to a tip from fellow birdnut Tina M., I was able to capture a photogenic Flaming Sunbird at Mt. Makiling with the pre-production 7D Mark II. :)



Flaming Sunbird (Aethopyga flagrans, male, a Philippine endemic) Habitat - uncommon in forest, edge and second growth up to 1350 m. Shooting info - Mt. Makiling, Laguna, Philippines, October 15, 2014, Canon EOS 7D Mark II + EF 600 f4 IS II + EF 1.4x TC II, 840 mm, f/5.6, ISO 1600, 1/160 sec, manual exposure in available light, off-center spot AI servo, 475B/516 support, uncropped full frame resized to 1500x1000.

 A couple of 24 x 36 prints from the pre-production 7D Mark II were displayed during a photo-workshop I conducted at Baguio City on October 26th. As I expected, the prints turned out nicely as far as IQ is concerned, even when examined up close. Shooting info - CAP Cultural Center, Baguio City, October 26, 2014, 7D + 10 mm, f/4, 1/50 sec, ISO 1600, on-board flash at -2/3 FEC, hand held.
