My wife and I will be retiring and moving to New Mexico soon.
Do any NM natives have any tips for getting a photo of a Road Runner?
Every time I have seen them, they appear, then are gone in a millisecond.
Hard to get a shot off.
Any suggestions would be welcome.
+1 for Roberts Camera.
I have had good experiences with the items I have purchased from them.
I have a Tiltall tripod that I purchased in the early 1970's. It still functions perfectly. Supports over 40 lbs. Made in USA. They are often available used on eBay for around $100 or less. B&H sells them for $180 but I think they are made overseas now.
I will mention this in case you are not aware of it. If you are a student or faculty/staff member at an educational institution, you can purchase LR-5 at a discount. Around $74 rather than $135. You will need an email address that ends in ".edu" to take advantage of the discount.
Best,
