Subject: Re: [Tweeters] New species of tinamous discovered
Hi Dan - If you click on the image in Flickr you can see the metadata
including camera, lens, exposure etc. For these I was using a Nikon z7ii
with a 500mm F mount lens and an adapter for the F to Z mount (FTZii). It
was very dark and I was hand-holding so I set the exposure at 1/125sec,
f/5.6 which was the biggest aperture available. The ISO still was 25600
so there was a lot of noise which I removed with Topaz Photo. The rest of
the processing was done in Lightroom. If I could go again, I would
probably use a tripod or monopod and shoot at a slower speed to reduce the
ISO. In any case, I was pretty happy with the noise reduction and
sharpness for these images.
