    Hi Doc,

    Yes, handheld. ISO 400, 1/1000 at f/5.6, IS mode 2. The 100-400L is a tremendous lens, and I recommend it as a good choice for birding, if 400mm is long enough for what you do.

    Cheers

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"
