I had my first real run with my Bigma last week with a visit to Pilanesberg Game Reserve about 200km from where I stay. I was hoping to pick up the "big five" for Gus, but only managed a rhino of that bunch.

Here are two birdies taken with the Bigma mounted on a monopod using a belt pouch to support the monopod.

I'm still working on the gallery, but if you'd like to have a look feel free to do so :D

As the ultimate level of laziness, I even took landscape pics with the Bigma :wink

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"
