Thank you, I use the canon 300mm f4 L prime, its non IS but as long as i keep the shutter speed above 1/500 i find that theres no need to worry about camera shake.
That AC130 hack has made its way onto the PC.
Went into a groundwar match, domination... two aimbots on my team gettin headshots left right and centre... then AC130... with no reload times.. just pure spam.. got it on video too, it sucked.
The match is still going, server still open. winning...
Sunroof? My g/f's has the same problem and its pouring in from the sunroof, lad at work had the same thing and he's sorted it by taking the sunroof out, cleaning it and using a sealer round the edge.
At the moment i have two classes i swap between.
Intervetnion + FMJ
Spas + grip
Slight of hand
stopping power
Sit Rep (just to do the challenge "what the..")
or
ACR + holographic
Spas + grip
Scavenger
stopping power
steady aim
oh and for CTF i use
Sod primary weapon..
USP + tactical...
Thanks guys, Yes they have a small crop but its to make the image cleaner... i've cropped out part of another perch which spoilt the background tbh!
Im after a 1.4xtc for my 300 though, i would use the 2x but IQ suffers too much.
I have quite a bit of sucess just tucking myself up in a treeline, only used a "pop" up hide a couple of times.
Most of the reserves round here are pretty camera friendly and designed to get the wildlife closer to ya.
I'll look forward to seeing your results!
p.s if money was no object i...
Possibly, alot of the Pros are still using them for wildlife + sport and indeed i got my gear off one.
It's money that stops me upgrading, but even still i'll only upgrade my lens, the 1D Mark2 is good enough for me using it as a hobby.
Who needs 400/500 and lose £3k+ Get closer to the subject :approve: Works for me!
The 70-300mm will be fine, the only thing i would say is that telephoto lenses will never be pin sharp by way of design.
Try using a beanbag! There light, stable and can be put virtualy anywhere, i use one...
Yeah lol Nikon... foreign to me!
50mm will be a challenge to get close to wildlife! I use 300mm and still find myself needed a bit more! 1.4x tc coming my way soon!
yeah its a magpie.
Lens wise, depends on budget and camera!
If you can afford it use a prime lense (fixed focal) its faster focus and optical quality will be ideal. I shoot in Av mode for wildlife and it gets some good results.
IMO Steer clear of the 50D i know a few pro toggers that tried using it and gave up frustrated, it just fails to deliver.
The 7D Hasnt had a bad review yet tbh, it's ideal for sports + wildlife plus the high ISO it can work upto with useable pictures is brilliant for a crop sensor camera.
Depends, Today i was outside for 8 hours but I was after other stuff too he just happened to turn up and I couldn't resist!
In the summer i spent 11 hours waiting for this shot:
and 15 minutes in a hide for this one...
My main workhorse is a Canon EOS 1D Mark 2 + Canon 300mm f/4 L
I don't use a tripod, i find for wildlife unless the subject is captive they tend to be unpredictable, i take my shots handheld or use a beanbag so i can move quickly.
What camera do you use, or are looking at getting?
