The photosniper. Ok with my Nikon attached. But the Sony is smaller and easier to use. I modded the trigger to fire my digital cams.  Taken at the feeding station in Risley Moss hand held because I forgot my 1/4 - 3/8 adapter! Allimages, Auto contrast and cropped about 50% Greater spotted woodpecker (male)  Acrobatic grey squirrel  |

That looks like it is a lot of fun. Good shots and great timing. The squirrel seems to be healthy though what appears to be a back tooth could have made life difficult for the little guy. Enjoyed your post.

Mickey, that robin didn't match Mary Poppins' accent. Was it the north American variety?

It is not that we are always sad here but eating worms can spoil one's appetite. Oops! Lunch time. Must go. Cheers. |

Nice enjoyable Pictures. It seems like a Sharp lens With great bokeh. Not easy to walk around all day With this "weapon"?

Not easy Truls. I also had my Canon 135 f3.5 rangefinder lens and 2x extender with me to compare. Less than half the weight, half the size and almost the same image quality. I think each has its uses.

I have my all original Photosniper -- an older version, I think, than yours, Phil, with the original camera. It performed quite well. It has sat here unused for some years because I am afraid that if I take it out, it will look like I am armed. Here, in the very wild west (Central Valley of California), that could mean some very serious problems. Dave

A shame. It got a few looks while I was out but everyone knew what it was, although I wasnt carrying the shoulder stock.
Thanks for looking.
