I use this one too and it’s very rugged and has been the best one I’ve bought (4th rolator since initially told I needed one). It’s great for snow - esp here where we have snow for 6 months of the year.

Of the lenses you list, I have the DA*300 and I use it quite frequently with the 1.4 teleconverter. I’ve been very happy with the results.

Well I tried my very best not to miss a day but it’s 11pm here and all the shots I have today well just plain suck. There is less grain in bowl of grape nuts. They are bad. In my defence most of them were of my best friend’s new cat and he was very camera shy and thus he was far away and my cell phone just wasn’t up for the task. I’ll be back tomorrow.

Zippy, I hope you got your surgery and all went well.


Earlier in the month I begged for votes in a local photo contest. - I got third which initially would have netted me a thanks for entering but they decided to give the first three winners a prize. So my foxes will be printed and float-mounted. I’ve no idea what that exactly means but the person doing it seemed excited to be putting it together for me. So thanks to anyone who voted for me.

So after much deep thought I bought yet another camera bag over the weekend. I use a wheelchair and I’m finding it increasingly harder to keep bags on my lap. This one can go round your waist and while it won’t win me any prizes for being good looking it will help keep my camera gear in the right places. It’s a Wandrd 9L Rogue. There’s a link to it in my Flickr Post:

Can you show me a picture of your set up? Maybe it’s just because it’s a Monday morning but I can’t seem to wrap my head around it. Even though I bought the monopod I still prefer handheld.

Thanks,
Stevi

Yes I did check the weight and I bought a very sturdy monopod for the 70-200mm when I bought it last summer, so I’m covered. It’s good to know about the centre of gravity. I hadn’t given that much thought. I wish I could feel one in my hands but that just isn’t possible here.

This has been an interesting and worthwhile discussion. I have a K-3 and a K-1 mkII and I also have the DA*300mm f4 ED and the 1.4 teleconverter. The 150-450 keeps jumping in and out of my shopping basket. I have some concerns over the weight. But then I had concerns about weight when I bought the 70-200mm and I handle that just fine. Maybe it will stay in the basket this time - just waiting on my taxes to see if I can spend the money.

Tawny Frogmouths are my most favourite birds - but I think I might have said so before. Lovely image.

This is completely out of character for me but I have a favour to ask. My local art supply store is having a photo contest and I entered one of my fox photos from last summer. If you are so inclined could you swing by and vote for number 94? You can find the page to vote and view some of the other photos here:

The weather will still be wintery here but we are at least on the right side of winter. February was a bit spotty and I don’t doubt that I will miss a few days but I shall jump in for another month.
