Yeah, if she learns to kill spiders and open jar lids, you're out.
Seriously though congratulations to her on a nice buck and to you on being a great teacher.
The canon full frame cameras are awesome. At least the two I have. Don’t get me wrong the 50D cropped sensor I have is a good camera. But the 6D has a much more usable high ISO. I’ve read that the high ISO on it is better than the 5D IV but I haven’t had time to do a comprehensive test on that yet.
Guy I’ve been a Canon shooter since I went digital and the latest is the 5D IV. I really like the images from the 6D I have and it’s not going anywhere but the 5D IV has a better autofocus system with a lot more focus points and I thought that might help with the wildlife.

Bill you are lucky to live that close. It’s right at a 3 hour drive for me. My wife and I have made day trips before but since I love photographing the streams just after sunrise we usually don't go unless we can spend at least one night.
