Tiger - My New Model

[KenL]

This one is 1600 ISO again but it's as good as I could get it.
Tiger still runs when he sees me, but from this far away he just watches me closely!

Why so high?

Why so high?

EXIF Data:
Model = NIKON D300
Exposure Time = 1/60"
F Number = F5.3
ISO Speed Ratings = 1600
Focal Length = 240mm
Focal Length In 35mm Film = 360mm

Handheld, cloud cover and shade, aperature at its max, the Nikkor 70-300VR did well. Unless I'm shooting landscapes with my tripod when I lock in at 200 ISO, I keep my setting on auto adjustment of ISO to keep my shutter speed a minumum of 1/60". With my VR lens I might go even lower but often the cats are not sitting completely still so I'd get motion blur too often.
