Canon T3, 18mm~55mm AF Lens, 55mm~250 AF Lens, 75mm~300mm Lens, Canon TTL flash and a Minolta 50mm manual lens for reverse use as a macro...

Feedback

This shot is taken by setting camera on tripod pointed at a stick I placed above a bird feeder... I run cable to laptop in the house and use remote control software to take a shot when a bird land in the right spot...
