I learn a lot by looking at these images and the data at which the shots are captured. As a mostly people photographer, I feel like I've had to adjust my thinking about how to shoot wildlife, which requires completely different settings, utilizing a larger depth of focus in aperture, shutter speed and ISO settings. I'm just saying that it's a different mindset. I don't know that any of this could be accomplished as well without the expanded great performance results of higher ISOs. Wildlife doesn't sit still very often, especially the smaller creatures.

Douglas, you are making it really difficult to wait for an A7000 (if it ever comes)!
Kim, someone bought one through greentoe for $750! If I were you, I would get one now to have some fun before the A7000 arrives. Nobody except Sony has any idea when it will come. The rumors for the A7000 started in 2017, we got the A6400 instead. I was dismissive of the A6400 when it was announced but got tired of waiting for the A7000.

That was me.
My first offer was $700, they countered with $825, I countered with $750, a day later it was accepted.
Watching the early GBH's getting theirs nests ready was a learning type of thing.
As you see in this shot, the bird is leaving the nest with the stick.
He's taking the stick from a not yet occupied nest, and taking it to his nest, one island over.
