lonestranger Posted August 27, 2022 Share Posted August 27, 2022 16 hours ago, blackburnian said: Crazy considering he was shooting 300mm. Don't forget that the photographer started out with 45MP before cropping many of the photos down to less than 3MP. Being able to crop so extensively speaks volumes about the quality of the camera AND lens combo, as well as the skill AND luck of the photographer. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
