Quite Close

LGVS wildlife ponds, San Rafael, CA

Although he looks unbelievably close, the crop factor makes this the equivalent of 810mm
so not quite as close as you'd think. Plus the image is cropped.
I was just beginning to get nervous about how close he would approach, but he turned off the path and through a wire fence right after this.
- Actually my last shot of him on the trail with me -

Nikon 1 V1 ,Nikkor 300mm f/4 ED-IF AF-S
1/800s f/7.1 at 300.0mm iso400
(810mm equivalent with 2.7 crop factor of V1) full exif


other sizes: small medium original auto

The combination of the little V1 sensor and the 300mm f/4 works much better than I would have thought!

Indeed this is a fine image, Laura! I've gotten within 50 yds of one but got nowhere near the quality of your shot!
