I'm just befuddled on this one. So I'm going to the well of wisdom and experience - FM'ers.....
I always wanted to photograph some baby Common Loons. Not having much in our neighborhood in Montana, I spent a week at my wife's family camp in Maine (and I do mean camp - no electricity, water hauled from the lake, cold swimming 'baths'.... you've no doubt been to this place too!). I spent days waiting for chicks to hatch and had a great time with lots of wildlife to view. Samples below!
When on the last day a chick hatched - I had an opportunity. I had been careful all week and used the 7Dii, 600ii, and 1.4xiii and monopod from kayak to keep a fair distance. What has me befuddled is that at 7:50am I took a photograph of a King Fisher on my way to the loons (Raw files in the link below) that was sharp enough for me, but 1/2 hour later, with the loons, I took over 800 OOF shots! Not one was tack sharp (Sample in the same link). Anyone interested enough to take a look at these raws and give me an opinion a befuddled old man sure would appreciate any pointers you might have.
Granted in a few cases my SS fell to 1000, but mostly at 1600 all week I was having great success. But when it counted I got skunked....... I can imagine it could be user error, but nothing in the settings changed within the 1/2 hour.
Befuddled.......
