On last weekends trip to Big Sur, early doors, a woodpecker presented himself on a tree across the path and requested some headshots. I obliged but only after fumbling for ages with a lens change with N giving running odds on the chance of the birdy buggering away. I know SLR cameras and the associated lenses give you amazing versatility but have you ever tried changing a lens in the field quick time?
Some pictures resulted and apparently I said something of value, at least according to N.
“From now on I’m going to keep my zoom on my camera, after all, landscapes don’t run away do they?”
I dunno why but that apparently that’s a gem.

Gah. I hear you. I was at a concert recently, and it’s the first time I went with 3 different lenses. Such a bugger to keep changing them especially in the dark with idiotic moshers (at an INDIE concert).
I was having visions of a few 1000 bucks being stomped on by some ass hat. It was almost the first time I felt remotely maternal
I’ve got my eye on Nikon’s 18-200mm, *sigh* which will have to be acquired used methinks.
