Hi there, those are really amazing shoots. I've never taken photos of birds before, totally noob in that area of photography.
May I know how you manage to focus your shoots so well when the birds are in flight? Do you use auto focus or manual?

Please kindly enlighten me :kowtow:

Thanks!

Thanks guys for the comments...

HeiPiGu: welcome to the forum...i took the pics all on AF. U can notice thats birds loves to do the same stuffs which means there's almost 70% they will repeat what they are doing. they love flying to the same spot like an example. the easier way is to shoot wide and crop a bit later in photoshop too (refering to flight shots).

here's the babies..hee hee..they are so cute to me...

It might works with AF set on "C". And track the bird. Take some practice.


Nice chicks! GENO!
