Thanks Dilbert! That's what I learnt this weekend - anticipation of the motion path, burst mode and shoot range. Let me try these out this weekend

Ok guys . get your gear out..its hunting time , 5 planets will be visible during sunset and sunrise.. around Feb 23- 25. I have zero hopes in my area given cloudy / snow / rainy weather..

Any recommendations for good backpack which can hold 2 bodies, 5-6 lenses (one 400 or 500 mm lens), tripod, laptop and other accessories. I had a look at Kata 467i which is pretty reasonable for my budget.
Suggestions and inputs are welcome (Only back-packs)

Good stuff Sathya go for it, initially when you are learning you will be carrying too many lenses , but once you start understanding your lenses you will carry only the lenses that are needed for the subject. Also more important changing lenses in dust / moisture filled atmosphere is dangerous for both Camera and lenses all it takes is few seconds between changing lenses. you need to pay some serious attention, carry a camera cover buy a cheap one atleast. You get your thanga mani worth , if it saves your gadgets from even 1 rain.

Welcome to the most addictive ,expensive hobby

Thanks Dilbert Bro! Now only realizing how addictive and expensive it is I wanted to stop at around $1200, now, I feel it would be ever expanding expense

No more budget allocated for me! But please suggest a cheap and durable tripod for Nikon D5100! I will try to pass this bill at home ministry to get sanctioned. Thanks.
