Thanks for the kind comments. Here's the still shot from which the video was derived:

Here's my moon attempt in 2010 with a Canon 400 2.8 IS + 4x TC + 7D:

I use both mainly for filming birds and other creatures in 4K (for still shots, I still prefer a DSLR + long lens). From a bird filming perspective, these cameras are complementary. The RX10 IV has ...

Thanks, Augustin. I've captured a better moonshot some time back, but I had to use a 13-pounder lens, stacked TCs and a DSLR. ;-) https://pbase.com/liquidstone/image/171246901/original

Thanks, Marco. The moon, as seen from our islands this morning, was in a vertical position (I rotated it about 90 degrees clockwise in post). At 3000 mm, the vertical moon wouldn't fit in the ...

The seeing conditions over our place were not so bad early this morning, so I tried shooting some still shots at the moon. :-) Shooting Info - Bued River, northern Philippines, February 4, 2020, ...

Lovely light, nice detail!

Wow, excellent job in getting this shot.

Love the detail and the catch light.

Just got this superzoom about a week ago for filming static birds at long range, and I'm still trying to familiarize myself with its strengths and weaknesses. So far, it has exceeded my ...

Here's another clip:

At 5.5 inches total length, this is the smallest woodpecker in the Philippines (it is found only in this country). It is often seen creeping up tree trunks and branches in forest, edge, and even ...

Thanks, Bill. I'm amazed at the tremendous amount of shock that this bird experiences with every peck without showing any apparent ill effect.

Thanks, Jerry. As a birder, I was torn between just enjoying the spectacle up close with my naked eyes, or trying to record it for viewing later (but shifting my attention instead to focusing and ...
