Thanks Morag2, I appreciate the input.
I don't have image stabilization on my camera or lenses.
I read that you need a shutter speed of about 1/focal length, so at 200mm, I would need around 1/200? I guess that's for freezing movement, so for landscapes and elephants I can get away with slower?
Maybe a higher ISO setting will be enough for those action shots? Do people use tripods on safari?
Do people use polarizing filters with telephoto lenses?
It's a lot to digest, and mostly academic for me right now. I guess I need to get out there and try some things out instead of just talking about it heh? :idea:
