Taman Safari - The Birds of Prey Show

There are many show on this park, one of them is birds of prey show. The show is where the birds came fly to their trainer. I changed my camera setting to continuously shot, AI Servo mode and keep shooting as many times when the birds flew. It remind me to play Counter Strike, keep focus point on target and fire at will :)
This is my first time that I need to take pictures continuously, and I fell that my 550D with 3.7 shot/sec is enough. I can captured more than 12 pictures continuously without any shutter lag.

As overall, I am happy to see all the animals in this park, they look healthy and well maintained, and.. I really amazed with EF 200mm f/2.8 L II lens with its fast responds, high quality image and wonderful bokeh. But unfortunately this lens is an old product and not produced anymore. The similar type that available now EF 70-200mm f/2.0 L USM. Great thanks for Wandi to lended me his lens and advise.

Taman Safari

On the Sunday cloudy morning, we headed to Taman Safari, a conservation park located on Cisarua Bogor. Its very near, only took 1 hour from my home, but only Anwar stayed focus behind the steer, when Wandi and me fall asleep.
When preparing my gear, Wandi was offered me to try his EF 200mm f/2.8 L II lens, so then I can capture the object more closer. During my exploration on Taman Safari I only used this lens and here the results.
