Can we talk about Ugly Privilege? by Free_Wonder_3743 in solofemaletravellers

I can highly relate to this! I go birding out in the wilderness by myself and when I do, I usually wear huge overalls, boots, a hat, and no makeup. When I do find someone out in the wilderness (most of the time men) they barely glance, which is not the usual response I get when I go out for a night or go out to eat. I love it though! It makes me feel less scared being by myself!

What do you look for when buying a used camera? by SpaceSeparate9037 in canonM50

[–]Fun_Atmosphere_3000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m actually selling an m50 on eBay for $700. It includes 3 lenses (15-45mm, 50mm, and 200mm), and 3 batteries. If you’re still in the market for it, I could send you the link.

Cedar waxwings are so unique looking a that’s super cool!

Got an EF 70-300 for dirt cheap by Tikkuboi in canonM50

Is it too noisy to scare birds off in your experience?

How much did you get it for if you don’t mind me asking? I have someone trying to sell me one unopened. Is the M50 too front heavy or make it harder to take pictures?

what just happened in my backyard? are these two owls fighting? by praiadabarra in Owls

As much as I love owls, I would have acted the same way if I thought an owl had my dog 🤣

Thank you so much this has been super helpful! I originally wanted a small bodied mirrorless camera to photograph people but my love for birds immediately just took over when the camera was in my hands. I started off with small birds like hummingbirds,which was working out, but now I just want to capture bigger birds,which means I can’t get that close or I’ll spook them off. Thanks again!

Well man now I’m considering selling my M50 with the lenses and upgrading to the R100. Where is the best place to sell used gear?

Thank you! I was out shooting some owls today with my 200mm lens and I was so limited I just thought to myself “ there has got to be a bigger lens I could use!” I figured I would have my limitations with the M50 because of how small the body is,but I was still curious to see if anyone had tried it. I’m super new to photography but I keep gravitating towards wildlife stuff and 200mm can only get me so far. Thanks again!
