I am very impressed you sleep with the D850 by your side Graham. :lol:

Very interested at the prospect of a lightweight 600mm coming onto the market. I might well use that as the trigger to get a D850 to pair with it. Could be an ideal combo...provided the birds aren't only 5ft away.

My birdwatching friend and I have been planning to visit Frampton ever since you first mentioned it, but sorting out my deceased father's estate got in the way. His passing also somewhat sapped my enthusiasm for most things. I am emptying his house of furniture next week.

But It would be an ideal opportunity to combine the two events. I will give you a call nearer the time.

Eric all sounds good my dates are now firmly booked and Tom my very good birder cousin will be with me (he lives in S Repps)
This pix was taken at same session as above and it is I think some sort of Pipit but unable to find it in several bird books any idea? Is a ground feeder and was with the Bramblings and about same size. Shot as above D850 and 80-400mm AF-S.

No doubt these two cameras are outstanding, good pix! Fast spot on focus and low noise at high settings. I think the D850 has lower noise when pushed above 2600 ISO but there is not much in it.

For wildlife I think if you have either the D850 or D500 you will be happy.
