Review
I visit Izunuma from October to January of the following year to capture the drama of the geese taking off in the morning.

It is said that about 70,000 to 80,000 geese fly in. I pay a lot of attention to my equipment to capture the geese taking off in an instant and heading to the feeding grounds.

This time, I used Markins' Q10 to take the photos. I adjusted the operation of the Q10, held the lens down with my left hand while zooming, and moved it up and down and left and right while pressing the shutter with my right hand, chasing the geese with continuous shooting.

I was able to confirm that the Q10 worked smoothly from the preparations the day before, but I was concerned about how it would work with the temperature at the site (-2 degrees Celsius).

However, it handled the temperature on the day smoothly. The tripod, head, lens body, and camera were all white from the cold air, but the Q10 worked very smoothly, and it erased my worries.

Finally, I will send you some photos taken today so please take a look.
