- Support Very good. I wish the feet were sharp but it's nigh impossible from that distance.--Peulle (talk) 16:29, 22 April 2018 (UTC)

- Support per Peulle. Such a pretty bird! Can you tell whether it's male or female? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 21:28, 22 April 2018 (UTC)
- I'm afraid not. Size is around 13cm, so I'm actually about 6m away. Charles (talk) 07:30, 23 April 2018 (UTC)

- Oppose Maybe nice, but the tip of the beak and the legs are not sharp. Using 560 mm f8 should work. I wonder why not here. Also the lower area of the picture is noisy. --Hockei (talk) 15:23, 25 April 2018 (UTC)
- Did you check the Canon APS-C DoF chart Hockei? DoF is 3cm and kingfishers 'lean forward' when perching, so feet will unfortunately not be in focus at 6m. I see no significant noise. Charles (talk) 16:33, 25 April 2018 (UTC)
- Support Kingfishers are soooo hard to shoot, and this is a pretty good one. --Tomascastelazo (talk) 17:15, 25 April 2018 (UTC)
