Lovely shots as ever DJ

I know it's an 'easier' shot than some of the others but the duckling (number 5) is so silky smooth. Stunning IQ.

Re: Siskin, Sparrow, Gsw, Goldfinch, Swans, Duckling

In which case I was spot on... I won't repeat it all again but there is something about that 5D that seems to make images sparkle. It's a bit dear for me, and I am committed to Nikon, but it seems to have a quality signature about it that I don't see in other cameras.
