Normally I’d agree with you, but for those shots the Nikon P900 and a tripod are doing most the work. It’s a point and click camera designed with an insane zoom. The sensor in it is the same as their cool pix line, and you can’t change lens on it. However it’s fairly cheap for something that can get you that close to the moon ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/7/8/a/78ac703e0f24d8cb27e14115ec80f8742626d343.jpeg) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/3/5/e/35eb9e1720d6bdddbebe7eb24568e107af15231e.jpeg) ---

The big blue ones would literally not land, and if you came within 10 feet they would take off - was such a pain to get a picture of them. A lot of the other ones though would stay still for me on a flower or something though lol ---

I also use a T6i with the 50mm. I also have 18mm-55mm f/3.5-5.6 that came with it. The thirst for an upgrade is very really, especially for something mirrorless and full frame. You ever see Randy Blythe’s Instagram feed? He uses a Leica, and quite a few of his shots have really sold me on them. It helps that he is incredibly talented behind the lens. ---
