Couple of quick points here (which I'm sure you know). Let me just start off by saying thank you for the video. Just my perspective on a few items mentioned here. 1: Scene lighting: Suggesting to "get as much light as you can - i.e. full sun (i'm paraphrasing here) really depends on what you are going for. Yes, I understand you are saying this in the context of faster shutter speed and lower ISO. I get it. But as you know, full sun will not always be the best for the reflective feathers - leading to specular highlights. Slower shutter speeds can also be "The Best" for capturing desired wing blur, so perhaps this should be the best for freezing motion. I haven't decided yet if stopping all wing mostion is a bit like stopping the propeller on a prop plane or stopping a car's motion driving down a road - though?

Nicely done. I've never been able to get pictures that crisp with wildlife.
