[Leica] IMG: More Experimenting with Bird Images

[Douglas Barry]

The white certainly cleans up the background and defines the bird better, 
Jim.
I hefted out my old Pentacon 300/5.6 M42, fitted it to the Sony A7ii, and 
aimed it at the beech hedge where some small garden birds nest. However, 
even with 300mm they appeared like specs - and blurry ones at that. Nothing 
avian ventures near the house as there's a murderous cat that considers 
anything with feathers fair game...
