Nice. Not as dynamic as some of yours in the past, but you take what they give
you. Hopefully it will work as well when the birds are banking and maneuvering
around a lot.

Subject: [LRflex] Z7 with 300 f4.0Pf - Eagles in Flight
Hi Flexers,
Peter was asking about the capability of the Z7 on birds in flight.
At Otter Bay ferry terminal Wednesday I had the Z7 with the 300 f4.0 Pf. It’s
a nice light combination.
The eagle was skittish and flew over the terminal but did not land - likely
because I was wearing my spring clothes instead of my winter ones.
Focus capture was very good - about the same as with the D500. Locked on follow
focus was also about the
same - helped, perhaps, by the new animal eye focus software that I had just
downloaded.
Three images for your viewing - all at 1/1000 f9.0 exp comp -0.3 with auto ISO.
All cropped to about half the frame.
