Sandhill Cranes, the Encore

January 11, 2025  •  Leave a Comment

I visited the Sandhill Cranes again in hopes of improving my photos. This time I used a 600mm F4 with 1.4X and 2X teleconverters. I have been experimenting with using exposure priority, usually 1/4000 to 1/8000 of a second exposures and auto ISO. Unfortunately this procedure produces a lot of noise since ISO launches into the stratosphere. Removing the noise thus produced also reduces the detail of the subject. So,... I'll return to my tried and true aperture priority technique which I've used for 25 years.
