Birdboy Posted February 24, 2011 Report Share Posted February 24, 2011 Great shot - Well done. What camera set up are you using ? BB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
henry d Posted February 26, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2011 Great shot - Well done. What camera set up are you using ? BB Thanks, it`s a Canon Legria FS 200. I got it from Argos cheap as I like Canon "still" cameras and this is easy to use and can either be plugged into the comp or just slide in the SD card.
