I managed to get a shot of this Redhead duck (aythya americana) just as he was looking right at me. It was a dull, rainy day and my auto-ISO chose 4000! No way would this have been a usable image on my previous camera.

Camera: Canon EOS 5D Mark IV, Exposure Time: 1/400, Aperture: f/8, ISO: 4000, Focal Length: 420mm

If you enjoy my photographs please consider making a purchase. All of the proceeds from the sale will go directly to help support our friends volunteering at the Seed of Hope in South Africa which is a great organization really making a difference in the community. Every little bit makes a difference, even a small digital download for your desktop!
