    Got a few of those as well. I think I captured a few good ones today. I have an idea for another shot I might try and capture as well

    And one more non entry of some actual surfing. Yes it’s crooked and not great. I just transferred to my phone with the WiFi and did a quick color edit on Snapseed

    Ok, so looking in to getting a new lens now. I obviously can't afford that 400mm f2.8 from Nikon.... what are some other good brand lenses that are of that size? What's the price range of some of these bigger lenses? I know they're gonna be pricey, but what kinda numbers should I expect to be looking at? Also, do I really need a 400mm? The 270 I shot with today definitely was not enough though, so not sure a 300 would even be worth it at that point.

    It really is. Not hard to use at all and plenty of tutorials on YouTube for sequator. I downloaded it, and stacked 10 photos in 15 minutes

    I use a Tamron 150-600 and is is super crisp even at 600mm. Way better of a lens than it should be for the price. (Too bad the photos get compressed on here)

    I'm looking into the Canon 100-400 version 2, new its about $1800, used around $1300, actually buying it soon... My friend has the Tamron 100-600, likes it, but big and heavy!
    $1200
