    • @HomemadeEcosystems
      @HomemadeEcosystems  Рік тому +91

    • @HomemadeEcosystems
      @HomemadeEcosystems  Рік тому +32

      @@k0kiF1 yes it is realy not easy to film with the animals moving and I need to keep the macro lens at just the right distence to not get a blurry image. Also you see every small movement of my hands and I definitely don't have steady hands 😅 But indeed I'm pretty happy with the quality for not too expensive equipment. I want to get a better camera for close ups of animals but I know nothing about camera's so I need to do some research to know what to get

    • @k0kiF1
      @k0kiF1 Рік тому +4

      @@HomemadeEcosystems the best solution right now for steady shots is to get a good tripod. Don't get one of those cheap tripods where all three legs are linked together, instead look for a tripod whose legs are independent of each other because that way you can adjust them all freely, especially in uneven terrain. Don't shell out $$$ on a professional grade tripod if you don't have the budget, you can get a very decent one for $100-150 (if you want a transverse center column, if not, then it's less than $100).
      Also, you can get a macro focus rail slider for minute adjustments. There are manual as well as motorized rail sliders. The motorized ones are very expensive, though, whereas the manual ones are less than $100.
      If you do invest in the tripod and macro focus rail sliders, there is a bit of a learning curve. You just have to see if what I mentioned works for you, because your movements will be extremely limited, but picture quality will be better if that's what you're looking for.
      As for cameras, if it's fast moving subjects you want to capture, it would be best to use a mirrorLESS camera because they are capable of adjusting lightning fast whereas a DSLR would be cheaper but too bulky and takes longer to focus. Obviously, the mirrorless cameras are way more expensive and you would have to invest in a macro lens on top of that.

    Tip, water the ground prior to placing your catch cup, and add a thin layer of damp soil and crushed dead / decaying leaves in the catch cup you'll catch a lot more in less than half the time.
    Tip, take a potato cut it in 2 halfs hollow out both Half's place it in the ground in damp soil hole side up, check it daily for a variety of insects empty it put it back in the ground until your happy with your catch
