I take pictures of plants and insects in woods including samller insects than you would notice, close up. It would be nice to be able to catch birds in flight, at least big birds like a pelican just as it starts to dive.
*It would be very nice to be able to sit back about 3 meters and click the shutter wirelessly. Can this be hacked, starting with a Raspberry Pi?
