i nailed a slow sinc at a 1/25s with the 100 to 400 lens of tt making coffee, no extra light etc, nice
it worked , however i was only testing to see if the lens was chatting with the camera
tis nice for birds, manual or at the least manual and a focus spot with a set distance to aim for is good
the full auto stuff can be too clever and slow
using it almost like a 35mm is effective
i am well happy with it and still learning
not bad for bird snaps but i do need to work on a proper replacement for the improvised fore stock under the lens, tis a heavy beast compared to owt i have used before
on a very positive theme, it survived the dog tripping me up with no more than a new cover filter for the medium multi fl lens
i got the 2 battery strap on for it which is ace with the big lens for pulling the balance back, using it portrait, lv charging etc
downside it only just fits in the biggest case with the mid lens on
stripped for small and tidy this camera is light for the abilities it has.
if i put a classic fixed 50mm on it would be very portable
the made for it gp lens is pretty good for general purposes, far away/very small would be an engineering and optics matter ![](images/smiles/icon_lol.gif) |

i just saw the slap a pap and thought naughty
after a few tries with cheese plates and handles and suchlike, i am now minded to take a saw, drill, chisel, knife and abrasives to the stock of a less than perfect crossbow
my thinking is the lens is fixed, the camera is fixed(ie no stress on the 5 to 7 point conversion ring) and i get to use it like a krinkov
might be rather nice for papping wildlife if it is short, stable and balanced
if the wood prototype works it might be time to think about a production version
the political paps might take casualties but sparrows etc dont have minders
i have seen such things ages ago, but they were far too cumbersome to be useful
i know cameras have a fairly small variety of mount specs, once those are attached to a cheese plate the potential is increased a lot
guns have 3 basic attachments, slotted grooves, weaver or picawhotsit rails(some have pegs as well)
a camera would be better with a rail fitting than a bolthole
all of that mentioned, my beast does seem to be going a bit mad max
hey ho for an old contax ![](images/smiles/icon_lol.gif) |
