Dear All,
Jackal from the GNP. It was very early morning, and this jackal had no regard for the low light, or the poor photographer pumping up the ISO to unacceptable levels and broke into the fair trot. Making a acceptable picture of a stationary subject at 1/15 is remote, what to talk of a picture of a trotting Jackal.
I have often felt that the Camera makes very sharp distinction on what could be acceptable levels of light when compared to a human eye. I used to feel that DSLR makes a hash of perfectly well lit subjects. However in this case, the camera made the scene brighter than it actually was.
5D Mark II + 300 f4 IS + 1.4x II @ 1/15 , f 5.6, ISO 3200.
Look forward to comments.
