Nikon 100-400mm Z Lens VS Nikon 500mm PF on the Z9 - Which Lens Is Best for Bird Photography PART 2
mikeroetex wrote:
While I love Marks work, this video made no sense. He didn’t like the 500mm because he was too close to the subject matter.
A 100-400 gave him more flexibility and a shorter reach as you would expect.
This has little to do with which lens was better for birds. He often shoots with a 600mm Sony. Does this mean a 100-400 is better than that lens?
No, it’s just a matter of choosing the right tool for the job.

Correct. Felt like Nikon paid him to root for the 100-400 to pump sales, at expense of 500. Being too close has little to do with either lens quality. Simply a matter of best Focal length choice for the situation. Duh Mark! However, Focus issues between the two lenses may have been valid.

Buying a New Desktop Computer?
If you have another PC with a working optical drive, you might be able to map it to your new Dell as another network drive. I've done that before with CDs and DVDs drives many times. Must set source drive (optical in this case) to allow sharing so target PC (Dell) can see it.

What kinds of things grab your interest? Are you willing to get off the Interstate highways? How far are you willing to detour?

Waco is between Dallas or Fort Worth and Austin. You can visit the home of Dr. Pepper and the Texas Ranger Museum, which is much better than it sounds.

Fredericksburg is about an hour from San Antonio and is home to The Museum of the Pacific War (originally a museum focusing on Admiral Chester W. Nimitz). It is a very reflective place with interesting photographic subjects. The town itself is a German community with lots of interest. There's an abandoned railroad tunnel a few miles from town which provides shelter for a large bat colony.

San Antonio has a great zoo with natural habitats and a great botanical garden.

Dallas has a premier 66 acre arboretum also.

The Hill Country offers places like Gruene (pronounced "Green"), Kerrville, and a host of others.

Austin prides itself on being "weird." They have a major bat colony under a bridge over I-35. The Salt Lick Barbecue is a family style restaurant near Buda, about 20 miles from town. Lots of cultural stuff in Austin itself, including an active art community.

This is just a short list. There's a lot more. Come and be welcome and have a great time.

All true, but Add Houston. Awesome BBQ Louisiana kitchen, and Cajon too. Architecture, parks, and bayou's are awsome.

Bird ID needed
Definitely Red Shouldered Hawk. Just took pics of one today hunting in our yard. Wonderful sight when they spread their wings in flight.

Backyard owl - super model
Gotta deal with lighting at hand. Nice shots. Love owls. This one seemed to trust you.
We get many hawks in our trees, but seldom any owls. Lucky you.

New Canon R5C
Insignificant change from the R5. They removed 30 min time limit on video mode. Rest is essentially the same, except for a $500-600 price increase. Fixing something that was their fault, and touting it as an amazing upgrade while charging more $ is a profitable scam when demand is strong. Government beaurcrats would be smilingly.

That time of year to consider 2022 Photography Goals
Despite obnoxious negative responses, these goals and questions are relevant, comprehensive, and thought provoking.
Lots of wise considerations in that list. You Don't have to do every one. But somewhere in that list is a reminder to every photographer, old and new, that equates to "never stop improving your craft.". There's sooo much more to learn and apply.

Almost forgot, Bob Fosse was the choreographer.


Watched it the other night. Must have been 30 years since I last saw it. Tab Hunter and the cast make the film damn entertaining. Fast forwarded threw the songs... annoying. Rest was good.
