  • 4 second Egret movie

    From m-m@21:1/5 to All on Fri Mar 1 20:41:24 2024
    I put my D3500 on a Nikon Fieldscope just to see what was possible and saw this egret finishing his dinner.

    Can't wait to see what else this setup can do.

    Nice!👍

    For good bird video and pictures it seems... one either needs some
    powerful magnification or a good blind setup really close by. Of course
    even better would be both😉

    Those setups are a bit delicate, unwieldy but get some pretty nice
    results as you've shown us👍

    There are some adapters that support the camera better, make everything
    a bit more robust to move around. Just a general google image search
    that shows a few (and a lot of false hits) of some adapters if it's of
    any help...
