That is where the phone comes in - always good to go and catch the video or photo.

Just happen to have an iPhone picture of TWO frogs (possibly Toads)  caught in a trice with my ever ready iPhone.

In praise of the iPhone......

The light had gone by the time it would have taken to ..... find my camera, get it out of the case, change the lens, switch on, adjust settings and fire

Very kind thought but nothing to photograph in our garden now we have stopped feeding the birds.
I swopped the camera for a hedge trimmer today.

No end of people passing by and commenting. One woman asked what I was creating.

I said “a load of balls”.

She said “OH No.... I think it's very good”.  

Dead posh round here. :lol:


Another chap said “what are you making ?” 

I said “Asteroids”


He said “that doesn't surprise me leaning and straining that much”. :lol::lol::lol:


Footnote: Yes I KNOW they aren't perfectly round and different sizes/shapes. It's not easy standing on a wobbly ladder holding a trimmer at arms length.....it's a lot heavier than a camera + 500mm lens.:needsahug:

Those look like a lot of work.  No wonder you cant get you camera out quickly.

I would like the Quietness of a Z camera ( Shutter sound of the Big D camera`s sound like a Drawbridge thundering down ) , but...the EVF does Not work well with PC Nikkors , even with the IRIX 11 f4.0 I have problems viewing,..just tried it in the shop, and that `s enough for me Not to invest in a camera with EVF.
