I gave myself a new camera as a birthday present and spent the following day at the zoo in Schönbrunn (Vienna) to take the first images. What can I say - there is no comparison to my old point-and-shoot Powershot A80. So be prepared to being pestered with animal shots... Taken with the new Canon 400D (Digital Rebel XTi in America) with an old 80-200mm lens at 200mm, f/8.0, 1/400 sec, ISO 100.

Very clear shot, only wish you could have gotten the entire bill in the pic. Otherwise very nice. Keep them coming.

Congrats on the new equipment. This is a striking closeup of this beautiful bird. The clarity is excellent as this the lighting. Stellar capture. :)

You did well getting this fellas attention. Very nice seeing him close with all the details. He looks a bit fluffed up :) and what an alert eye! His large bill gives us that surge of red which perks up the scene. Fine work here Mia, and hope you do more :))

I need to catch up on things so can't comment too much. But I love all of your fine images. I might be lurking in the background :)

I think I'd have called this one, "bad hair day". He sure looks like he has bed-head pretty badly. I like this image. I like the bright orange that contrasts with the rest of the image, and the curve and diagonal thing is really a good contrast to the disordered feathers.
