At 15 ft, I frame what I would estimate to be roughly 12x16 inches, so it is cropped from that. I am still working my way closer, but, given the array of feeders, I still need the ability to crop at times to straighten up the image and eliminate distractions. Since I am using the equivalent of a 500mm FL, 10 to 12 ft may be as close as I can get and be effective, since that gives a field 14 in. high by 11 in. wide. As to eye contact, they need to get more accustomed to my presence. Today, the wind was so brisk at times that waiting for the feeder to settle out was more important than eye contact. I'll work on it.
