Sony A7Rii with 180mm Leitz f4 R lens, Leica 2X APO teleconverter, tripod mounted.
It’s a bit soft, not a lot of focus room with these long lenses and birdies that flit around like crazy. But I’m reasonably happy with it.
I shot today with the A7Rii. It’s much easier to use hand-held than the Fuji because the image stabilization with the Leica lenses works pretty nicely. This was tripod mounted, however.
Thanks for looking. Thoughts/recommendations/critique are most welcome.
Oh - Steve Barbour made a suggestion either here or somewhere else about setup for manual focus. I tried it and I second his idea.
