Gear is the difference between
>backlit ducks sitting on concrete next to mowed grass in a parkAnd
>Uber sharp detailed duck from the shoulders up against green color soupAnd anyone who assumes this is correct. The other avenue is, as I said, feeding the ducks to close the distance and then relying on AF and a waist level finder or coating your clothes in duck shit rolling around on the ground because your canon 5d dont need no tilt screen.

When you control the animals, then you control the scene, and you're not just taking pictures anymore. You're making photographs. Remember this, it's your two options
Complete and utter gearfaggotry (99%+ of wildlife)
Control the animals, control the scene ("fake" wildlife pictures, but REAL photography, with wildlife)
