Fabulous photos Mousetoescamper! What does your kit consist of? Thanks! George McGovern May 30 #1

Thanks! I used a Canon EOS R8 with a Sigma 100-400mm lens for these photos Mousetoescamper May 30 #2

Neat! At which F-stop? Your bokeh is really blur-cool. Is the R8 full-frame/mirrorless? George McGovern May 30 #3

Set at f6.3. Yes, the R8 is a full-frame mirrorless camera Mousetoescamper May 30 #4
