Wow Nikonut, you must be living in a very peaceful area

Yeah, pretty much, deer,foxes ,raccoons ,hawks,owls,turkeys...I try and keep a camera nearby all the time...but it seems I always miss opportunities !

Aww, that's so nice, I always enjoyed taking nature photographs because it makes me feel peaceful and appreciative .

That's one of the reason why I mountain bike, to take nature photos .

Now if only Canon or Nikon would enter the Four-Thirds camera and make it like a fully digital SLR, meaning that it will have an EVF, no mirrorbox. I guessing the thing that prevents mountain bikers from bringing DSLR for their rides besides the size is because of the internal mechanisms? Like mirrorbox?

I have a bike but havent taken a camera trip with it,I usually just hike.Well you could use a small vinyl case with the pluk-foam and strap it behind you or in front,iam thinkin about those racks that go over the rear tire and behind the seat ya know ?

I love nature photography,thats my main bag,especially low lite at times.
