Although I have been using cameras for a long time, my first was a Brownie Hawkeye, I have rarely gone beyond the P or Auto functions. I am trying to improve my ability to capture some of the birds in my back yard that use my feeders and hopefully a hummingbird once in a while.
I am using an Olympus OM-D EMX-1 with a 100-400 IS lens soon to be delivered and a Nikon D780 with a Sigma 150-600 with a 2x extender. What is/are the best settings that I can program into my custom saved settings.
I was always using SAF but recently changed to CAF to get more shots of the same bird/s. I do most of my shots in the morning with the sun behind the birds. Are there some good settings with shutter speed, aperture, ISO etc. and if so what would the requirements be to use them?
Appreciate any help you can give
