FS-12

Could this be the camera for John? I have never met the gentleman but the words "huge gun-like object" leap to mind when I hear the word argghhh!!!

I would say that the Fotosnaipers (often 'translated' to English as 'Photo Snipers', but strange enough, I prefer the semi-Russian spelling that's found on the gun mount) are more suited to take action pictures, than they are to spy on people. The gun mount fairly convincingly eliminates the need for a tripod, so the FS sets are well suited for wildlife photography, sports photography, recording photography: situations where the subject will not feel threatened by a huge gun-like object.

Well, Castle Argghhh! *is* equipped with a 35mm camera that is mounted on a redundant M1 carbine paratrooper stock (not an original, of course!) that I used to hunt wild critters. I like furry things and so eschew shooting them (though I fully support hunting - especially after Bambi has munched his way through Beth's bulbs...) leaving that to others to fill the predator niche. And I do like a nice venison sausage.

I should perhaps do a fotoessaiy of my big gun sights...
