D2Xs Bigma @ 500mm Hand held 1500th@f7.1 ISO 250 full frame image

........ that bad........ I can change the pix for something very very ordinary

Don't change it, it's perfect

How fast does these things fly? Cause i've tried photographing seagulls and that's damn hard.

bit like shooting a very large heavy plane.....

Big How do you do it? Your hand holding monster lenses and monster cameras!

Its a great shot i must say, i m not such a big bird fan, but this is a good photograph. Was it cropped from the start?

When you say full frame image, AFAIK the D2Xs has a DX sensor, do you mean that the image just isnt cropped in pp? Scuse if this is a boon question

...... elbows tucked in tight, relax, control breathing, have camera set on continuous, pan with subject with a gentle touch of the shutter for a burst of exposure's....... and yes the gear does get heavy but also helps with steady and controlled movement

EDIT: and many years of practice

no cropping full frame image

I take you mean this lens; Sigma 50-500mm f/4-6.3 EX APO DG HSM ?
