Cameraderie

Bird photography is most often associated with heavy SLR bodies that shoot at machine gun speed with long lenses nicknamed as 'Bazookas'. Show photographs of birds taken with compact cameras.

Every year we aim to spend two-to-three weeks on the road, camping and sight-seeing. This year we headed to Echuca on the Murray River ahead of a statewide, autumn heatwave, then headed over the mountains into Gippsland. Instead of using a combination of small compact camera and my larger Panasonic micro four thirds G85, this time I used my Panasonic GX9 the whole time, as it's smaller and has USB charging. I only used my Olympus 14-42mm EZ and Panasonic 20mm f1.7 lenses briefly; the rest of the time I used my beloved PL12-60mm. All photos shot as JPEG and edited in Snapseed on my phone. Come with me on this journey through photos! I'll post in batches over the coming week, and let you know when we're at the end.

I'm currently fighting a severe case of X100 lust, but I did a quick camera stocktake last night and my camera tally currently stands at 3 x DSLRs, 1 x CSC, 1 x serious compact and 2 x P&S cameras. I probably don't need another camera, do I? Do I? How many cameras do other people currently own?
