      This is the combo that always sits next to me whenever I may be driving.  I use this setup mainly for birds, wildlife & outdoor sports.  I have different mainly mirrorless setups for other things.

      D500 + 300mmPF+ 1.4TC vIII

        that's nice. i've always wanted to shoot with the bigger lenses to get a different views in a city. but it's a PIA to carry about..

          Yeah Louis I hear you. The whole appeal for me of the 300PF is that is is barely bigger than the 24-70.  The more portable, the more use it gets.

              oh. didn't realise that. not sure the different weight between canon and nikon's same lens. but my everyday is a f2.8 24-70L lens. as it is, it's heavy enough..

                This year I've managed to do a lot of travelling for work, taking my point-and-shoot film camera with me.

                Most of the subject matter wouldn't appeal to IH members (maybe?) but if you are curious check out my Instagram, (www.instagram.com/dylantbmayes).

                Here are some photos that you might find interesting…

                Any guess what this place is?

                            Im looking for a recommendation for a camera. it would be my first camera that isnt a standard point and shoot. im interested in photography as a hobby. i would use it to photograph my family and birds, wildlife etc. i would like a camera that i would have to learn to use effectively. i dotn know if that makes any sense. i may take a continuing ed photography class as well

                            Maybe so. Maybe not

                              I'd go for some second hand Nikon equipment. You can pick up really good deals as new stuff supersedes the older models. Don't know your budget but if you want to shoot wildlife have a look at the DX range of bodies which will extend the focal range of your lenses. I started with a D300, 17-55, and lots of old manual lenses…

                                    Nice to see in this Forum a Photograph and Camera-Thread! I do like photography a lot, I just love to be with my dog in the outdoors to photograph, doing sport and just getting the head free.

                                    Right now I am using a Canon 5D MK4 with 3 Canon and 4 Zeiss lenses but I have also the Sony RX100IV in use.

                                    Here are 5 pics I personally like a lot.

                                    Cheers!

                                      @Matty123 a recommendation really depends a lot on the price range you looking at.

                                        @Matty123 i've been a fan of the sony a7 range paired with a voigtländer lens. the prime lens makes it good for everyday photography or street photography and the quality is impeccable. the fact that the sony body is a mirrorless full frame as well makes it easy to carry about. compared to an entry level full frame of a 6d. which is bulky but when paired with a good lens like the 24-70 f2.8l lens makes it really heavy to carry everyday.

                                        if you're looking somewhere further down the line, canon's g1x series has always been my go to. had one a few years back and it's easy for someone to start of shooting..

                                        @marlin great shots. always been a fan of the 5D, especially the mk2. my 6d cannot even hold a candle even with the 24-70 f2.8l lens.
