Camera Balance…

You don’t need a good camera to take bird pictures.
Just a gianormous lens!
I spotted these birdwatchers while on the Fukuchiyama railway hike.
Look at the size of that lens… Look at the size of that camera! It’s a similar model to the camera I use to take JapanNewbie snaps.
By the way, totally off-topic but… I can talk about off-topic things right? You guys don’t mind do you? Anyway, I recently re-watched the 1986 animated Transformers movie
“Gianormous.”
I had a friend who uses that word all the time… I wonder if that’s where he picked it up…

I think your friend probably heard it from the more recent movie Elf. My mother and little brother use it all the time.

I heard it on the internet, though usually spelled “ginormous”.
And wow. That is one ginormous lens.

My relatively tiny 70-300mm lens cost $356. He probably saved up all year living in an alleyway for that thing.

Ginormous!
By the way, Transformers is -not- as cool the second time around. I could hardly stand it.
Photography looks like a great hobby… But the gear is too freakin expensive… These days I just have to buy guitar strings every month to feed my habit!
