How on earth....

...do you all manage to get such good pics of your hammies??

I'm stumped! my hammies are tame but the best pics i can get are blurs because theyre so active they just run all over the place! and the moments they do sit still i get my phone to take a pic and theyre off before i even open the lens!

look these 2 are the very best i can get im not even going to try to upload pics of my boy robos theyre just mental!

This is Millie girl - the rest of the pics she was launching herself across my lap!


Mr Chip is constantly on the move

Re: How on earth....

I can only thank my camera. I do have quite a good one, but I wouldn't recommend you go spend £700 on a camera just for getting good hammy pics! I'm into Photography, so I justified it. It takes 4 photos a second, so it usually gets a few good ones as they don't run that fast!

But when I had a normal compact, I found it difficult. I found the only way was to get them while they were eating.

I got a camera like that for Xmas one year and it still doesn't move fast enough for the mice!! I have found that using the camera on my phone has been great - 600 mice and cat photos and only a dozen or so are blurry

Re: How on earth....

I have the same problem with my rats, can't get a decent photo of them without them sticking their nose in the lens, running off, having a scratch etc
