Someone did their homework LOL.......... glad you enjoyed the tutorial. Hummingbird shots are the exception, its like outdoor studio shooting. For this set up as a fyi, it was a $800 body and $1000 lens
but yes my favourite set up is a Canon Mark III ($2k) and a 300 f2.8IS ($4k ) lens and use a 1.4tc if needed. You dont need this level of gear to get this quality of shots, but it does make it just a little easier
As far as mad PP, notta. Im too lazy, that is why you dont see exif because I use "save for web" in photoshop to compress to websize, the program strips the data for whatever reason, not that Im hiding it, again just being lazy as I hate post processing but have to convert RAW. The better job you get in-in camera settings, the less PP you have to do, that is the key. If I go out in the field and come back with one great shot, it was a great day

I can't find any on his Pbase site. (Keith...?) Not to mention lots of patience and set up. Really enjoyed your info on the hummingbird shots, Keith. If you guys think you can just snap a picture like that....here's the setup for those kind of shots:
