Hi Rashed, Grain or Noise @ iso 400 usually shows up in shadowed areas or shooting your subject dark, Dont be afraid to shoot to the right, or say 1/3rd over exposed in good light, and even more in bad light. You will notice brighter subjects have very little noise at 400ISO, Also when you have good lighting (sunshine) always bump the iso down to 200 where noise in non existant as 400 Is just a all around startig point for average weather or light. Also you should have a good grain removal program for noisey areas, like Neat Image or grain surgury.. Good Luck and let me know how it goes... Marcus.

Dear Marcus, this is a wonderful capture and so sharp, very impressive and so well balanced light and composition.
My friend, I tried to capture birds with my D3X and both the Nikon 300MM F2.8 VR and the Nikon 80-400MM F4.5/5.6 VR,, using high ISO like the 400 given me a lot of grain in the image.
Is there a way to over come the grain please ?
Thank you and wishing you all of the best.

Absolutely perfect focus and detail Marcus. Great capture... Perfect... I know you prefer a critique, but i can't offer a suggestion to make it better! Great job!
I agree with Andre as well - too bad some of the "reg's" have gone, tho' I have to admit, due to "family comittments" I was one of those that left - temporarily!
Welcome back. Kerry

I rest my case about the eyes!!! Excellent definition and colour in all the right places! Good to see you are still into the wildlife shooting! We have some Harriers in one of the fields not too far away from us. They don't like to come too close to people. I'll have to get out there and try a few shots anyway.
I agree with your about, mostly, I just wish so many of the regulars from a few years ago didn't leave. Oh well, every thing changes.
I still don't have the optimum birding lens for my D200. But I bought something not too bad for most wildlife and sports. I now use the Nikon af-s 300mm f/4 if-ed prime lens for sports and some wildlife. I add the 1.4 Nikon af-s TC for more distance and smaller subjects. The TC turns the lens into an F5.6 and is still pretty sharp. I was warned to stay away from the 2X TC.
Talk to you later. Andre
