Because its easy to "catch' them while they are staying still...another thing to "catch" them while they are moving. Tv mode is a pretty useful feature for beginners to use without going into details. Besides, it makes things kinda interesting on this outing using only shutter priority and experimenting on which settings can get what kind of image.

If got time today, can join us for the outing. Pictures may say a thousand words but seeing how the picture was taken should be worth a bit more right?

any digital camera will be fine...even camera phone. Good gear is one thing but i do believe a skilled operator is more valuable.

Gear imho simply limits the type of shots you can take but once can recognize what kind of shots can be taken with the camera, just need to wait for the moment.
