    Pen and Ink

    I do much more lurking here than posting...I've yet to land me a high end camera as I have too many interests already apparently :)...I do a pen and ink on occasion and this one was at the wife's request. Birds are a big deal around the house as we have feeders and are always on the lookout for...

    South Central Kentucky Raptor

    Hello, Gent's...I do more reading and looking here than posting but have a question for you. About 3 days ago the wife said she saw a large hawk land on our deck rail going after one of our fox squirrels. It missed but sat there a minute. She's relatively familiar with our Coopers hawks as we...

    Den,..thanks for posting. You make a strong case for your 1000.

    Which camera and lens????

    Marc,..thanks for your extended response and your time. I'll take some time to break down and look at the detailed numbers you've posted tonight and tomorrow. Let me say this,..even if I overestimated the comparison ranges in the post you responded to I really have no issue with having to be...

    Which camera and lens????

    let me add,...that a ton of my pics could well be under 10-15 yards or less in my yard or simply out on a photography hike hunt as well. I've been reading researching all over the net and many threads here all afternoon. I will say that while I think the P1000 is most impressive and takes some...

    Which camera and lens????

    As stated many of my pics will be right here in the yard. A LOT of my pics will be within 25 yards. Even in the Kentucky hills where I hunt a lot of subjects will be at that range and lets say a max of 50 yards. There are always leaves on and I hunt dense woodlands. So if I may try in put this...

    Which camera and lens????

    For this first purchase and initial set up I would rank zoom more important.
  13. A

    Which camera and lens????

    Will do,...I've got a little research to do with all the info you've guys have given and my purchase is probably about 90 days out. But it is a reasonable amount of $$ to be spending and I like to do some slow paced digging/research before hand. My knowledge base on the details are no where...

    Which camera and lens????

    Well actually I guess I mean both. I do want all the magnification myself and the camera can handle off hand,..but also the ability to adjust in and out. Many of my subjects in the yard or the deer stand won't be that far away.,...and then again others will. At the moment the Tamron 150-600 is...

    Which camera and lens????

    Interesting,..that makes me wonder if you guys "in this heavy" and keep up with all the new tech think that this type of tech could change the game as far as lenses go,....I'll check out the thread. Years ago I had and still do have a canon,..haven't looked at it forever but don't remember the...

    Which camera and lens????

    Excuse my ignorance here but is the zoom lens built into this unit??Or is it an extra ad on ??

    Which camera and lens????

    Marc,..thanks a ton for your lengthy reply. I should have stated that zoom is more important than action freeze capability and that while I will be in cold weather I won't be taking this equipment in the rain. Best Regards, -Aaron

    Which camera and lens????

    I'm sure you guys get this a lot. I'd like to stay with Nikon or Canon but I am interested in a quality camera and zoom lens for some quality bird/wildlife (mainly birds) pics. Many of the pics will be taken in my yard but also during long sits in a deer stand during cold winter months if that...

    Anybody use a trail cam

    Thanks for the responses and yes I actually am an avid hunter and I've owned trail cams years ago when they first came out. However; they don't last long in the backwoods as eventually they do get stolen. Was just curious as to how it would perform over a bird feeder,..I knew it would have some...

    Anybody use a trail cam

    Hey,...I've got several feeders up in my yard. Going to be looking into the photography thing in the near future. I have a decent camera and will be looking at lenses and such but was wandering if any of you guys have ever set up a trail cam on a feeder ? Best -Aaron

    Well I can't say they're aren't any cats around because I do see them patrol the fields around my house...I'm surrounded by farmland. That being said I am also a dog person and he isn't too keen on anything roaming in his yard....they keep they're distance :))..the bushy area is where I put the...
