Used to be 100% Nikon. I'm starting to figure out the Z9 though, maybe I'll switch back completely sometime in the future!

Nice set. Some of the poses are pretty comical. I'm also impressed with the IQ at those high ISOs. The R5 did well. Looks like that Sigma 300 performs nicely on the R5. How was focus speed compared to some of the big whites you have owned?

I do not know anything about these birds. Do people hunt them for food? I mean they are chickens right?

I love the rendering of the Sigma 500. The focus is a hair slower than the Canon EF 500mm II at significantly less cost.

You all are focused on frames per second and focal length. I am more concerned with more important stuff like "does that bird/fish/moose/whatever" taste OK fried, roasted or barbecued"

I can take a picture of the damn thing with my phone. The real question is can you eat it and is it better with wine or beer...
