Nice one Jeff.
Or as I should say "Raily nice!"

I guess that will go to an A4 print but not much more. However most people dont print onto large prints.

The important is that you have managed to get the image to fill the frame so cropping is unnecessary.

He could be in a museum JK. The feet are not visible so it could be stuffed and anchored. Very, very sly.:rofl:

No I've seen some of his other pictures so I know that my comment about the aviary is not true.
He knows his birds and their environment which is why he gets the photos.

I think you made the right choice .. If fuji made a lense at about 200 mm I'd be tempted by an xpro1
But my walkaround is the nex at the moment

You beat me to it. Lovely bird.

I am going to evaluate the Fuji EX as a walk around camera. But I seriously think using it as a vehicle for long tele work is a bit pointless. Unless you have VR lenses that work fully with the Fuji ( Nikon don't ) you need a tripod. If you take a tripod you might as well take a DX DSLR.

Ed...why don't you use the D800 for wildlife shots? Surely the extra pixels would enable even tighter cropping?
