Socrate, It really does a good job in sequence shooting but with the 3+ fps it's a bit slow for flying birds I think, If it's all I had I would be very happy with it though. If you do fill the frame it does have some amazing detail. Ron
Here is a full size image of number 5 to show how much cropping I did
Thanks for posting the original size shot, Ron. That is impressive.

They are some seriously good photos, All this talk about landscape cameras, Wildlife cameras, Studio cameras. The 5D mk2 is a 2008 high spec DSLR with servo tracking. FPS has nothing to do with great photos, They just mean more editing. This camera is more than capable as Ron has demonstrated. As our famous wildlife photographer Andy Rouse said, The skilful wildlife photographer can grab the shot in one click and that is more impressive than johnny hitech reeling off shots like a machine gun.

I'm very much impressed by your technic, to get these quality shots from a 5D2 is amazing I know the camera's IQ is excellent but to be able to get the shot that makes me go Wow.
