As a second shooter they work for worms, crickets, and grasshoppers. Pretty cheap. --------------------------- DJ |

They use Canon cameras, but how do they post process?  |

So, you leave a camera out and an inquisitive quadraped takes photos. I'm not feeling very good about skills right now. --------------------------- "You only get so many times to ride around the sun, to see the full moon shine. The day is done." Real life, not practice. |

Turned out to be a hoax. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/main...7/nmeer107.xml How is it that all us photography folks did not catch that the camera in the pic was a film camera and not a digital?  Quote from original article: "Ian Turner, deputy head warden at the park, and the man whose left his camera in the enclosure while taking images for a new brochure, said he was amazed to discover the images on the digital memory card." Quote from updated article: The camera the furry photographers were supposedly using to capture family snaps is a Canon EOS 650, a traditional camera that only takes film.  |

I did zoom in on the camera to find out what it was and it seemed like it couldn't be a 10D/20D/30D ... but I wasn't familiar enough with the Digital Rebels to rule those out. |
