A place to politely discuss the tools, technique and culture of photography.

This is not a good place to simply share cool photos/videos or promote your own work and projects, but rather a place to discuss photography as an art and post things that would be of interest to other photographers.

Since lens with high focal distance are generally not that fast and they need high shutter to freeze moving animals, how do they get light without addind too much gain an grain ?

Most havent said it but it also depends on the subject. Some scenes are so still that you can even get away with 1s exposures. Ive shot sharp owls in dark when I cant even see them but since they are quite still, I can still use longer exposures.
