    Puffin liked post by chainsaw On thread : seeking advice on a suitable caliber and make/model
    708 will get you to 500 yards, as will 308. You’d might be better off holding onto your 708 and investing in reloading gear. And/or upgrading optics if needed.

    I use a Panasonic FZ1000 for magazine work. Most of my articles are on farms and the ability to go from 25mm-400 in one package is amazing. The Panny (1" sensor) is like a Swiss Army knife of...

    Puffin liked post by Bol Tackshin On thread : Superzoom Bridge cameras
    That is a solution, but also has its share of problems... Even with a 1.6 crop body and a 2x converter, you only get 640mm effective focal length - which is about 13x magnification. The bridge...
