#birds #bird #birding #wildlife #photography #nature #BirdPhotography #NaturePhotography #pnw #BirdsOfMastodon #WildlifePhotography #birdwatching Help me! I have never seen a lone hummingbird feather while one was in the air. Was this being used for a flight ajustement, or just a fluke?
@bruce_pics I think that’s a rolling electronic shutter artifact. Whatever camera you are using scans out horizontal lines much slower than the hummingbird moves, resulting in weird apparent deformations like this.
@Stoneymonster that’s what I was thinking, too! I was confused because that’s a first out of hundreds. Thank you! That’s what I’ll go with.
@bruce_pics it’s really random, sometimes it works fine and then sometimes weird stuff happens. I blame the birds.
@bruce_pics @Stoneymonster yeah, that definitely looks like a lot of electronic shutter artifacts I get sometimes.
