I’m experimenting with the adapter and the HC 210mm lens. My experiment was a test of how difficult it would be to manually focus a fast moving, twitchy…
bird. With a rubber lens hood attached, and the hood pressed against the double-pane kitchen window closest to the bird feeder, here are two test shots.
These are
significant crops from the full frames and show the power of having cameras nowadays with high-megapixel, high-DR sensors. No tripod, no IBIS/VR/ISS/OSS. Just a young-at-heart old guy enjoying new equipment (and birds). I used +50 Luminance Noise Reduction in LR and some sharpening. The OOC camera WB was right on. And highlights on the goldfinch, which I usually blow, weren’t in this case.
Thanks to Howard and Peter Lorber (and to Bob for not ordering until I had placed my order
) I'm using the ppl.de collar. It's well made and works perfectly with the HC 210mm. And yes Bob, Peter is a "genuine proprietor and gentleman".
