The learning-curve continues

This set of images sees me continuing my familiarisation with the EOS-1D X.  I was staying with the usual (local) subjects, this time at Steeple Langford, Wiltshire.  The results are from two separate mornings and the light was different on each.


Great Crested Grebe

Canada Goose



Tufted Duck



Gadwall



Mute Swan




A week later ...

... and some taken against the light ...



Little Grebe







Tufted Duck




Conclusion:  Unlike my previous 1D, this new model handles almost exactly like my 5D MkIII, which makes switching between the two less demanding of one's attention.  I reckon I can now use it without having to look constantly at buttons and things!  I can even access my customised modes without having to go into a menu (a big failing on the 1D MkIV in my opinion).
