You guys that are shooting at great distance, how do you read and compensate for mirage...the "boil".?I hear a lot about wind but no one ever mentions mirage.
I would think it would be a factor, even on days when the wind isn't there?
BobinNH, there are plenty of guys that shoots way further than I do, and they might be able to shed more light on this, but mirage can also help with judging wind. If you use your side focus and turn it back and forward to focus on specific distance you can actually focus on the mirage itself and it will indicate the direction in which the air moves at that distance.
I do however prefer to shoot early mornings and late afternoons, as it is just more pleasant and wind tends to be less.
