Welcome Gustav,
You have a good set of equipment, and I hope you share your kingfisher photos and shooting techniques with us.

Welcome Gustav. It's been over 10 minutes and the Doc hasn't said anything yet (he's probably on a break) so I thought I would chip in a welcome

(Your English seems fine to me.)
Looking forward to some of your Kingfisher pictures, fantastic birds I agree. I guess you need to investigate their perches etc. to stand a chance of getting a shot? I would think the A700 and the 70/200 2.8 are great kit.

Hi again Gustav,
You can upload image files that's up to 1024px in size. The size must not be bigger than that on any side of the image. You can downsize your images to suit 1024px.
I attached a screengrab of how you can attach a photo to your post. Or you can link to your images using the '
URL' tag inside your post's text.
I hope this helps, good luck..

I have changed the preferences here to allow 1024 pixel wide images. Of course, that is more sensible than 1000 pixels as it is a standard size for images and screens. Thanks!
