Amazing shots

AgaBoogaBoo · Nov 7, 2005

wow, awesome pictures :Q

that tiger one looks like something I could totally see hanging up in a poster sized print

AgaBoogaBoo · Nov 7, 2005

Hmm... I may have to get some of these printed, issue is that they don't really go with the flow of my other posters since they're different topics completely

That red panda is unbelievely cute. The black bear looks depressed. That's sad. 🙁

edro · Nov 7, 2005

Did you use a tripod or monopod @ 500mm?

iamtrout · Nov 7, 2005

Pics were taken with the Canon Rebel XT and a Sigma 50-500mm lens... like I said in the original post 😕

Rebel XT: $700
Sigma aka "Bigma: $675
Feisol 3301 carbon fiber tripod + Bogen Manfrotto 486RC ballhead: $250

we all saw that... we're just asking more specific questions 😛

is the sigma very big/heavy? i'd imagine so... i didn't know they made a 50-500 😱

Whizzy · Nov 7, 2005

😎 really awesome pics !! :thumbsup:

iamtrout · Nov 7, 2005

The Sigma 50-500mm is a pretty big lens. The weight is 4 or 5 pounds.

Use with a tripod or monopod is almost required, unless it's a bright and sunny day and you've got access to shutter speeds faster than 1/1000sec at 500mm. The image quality isn't too bad, but it does get a bit soft near 500mm, which is unfortunate. Heh, but at least is GETS there.

Hammerhead · Nov 7, 2005

Where are the pictures of the Liger?

Bozono · Nov 7, 2005

You best forward some of them to Wasserkool stat or deal with the F..A..L.L.OOOUUUUU.OT.
I'd have to say the best pic is the Orangutan...quite pensive.
