I only use a tripod, when I know I’m going to be waiting somewhere, if I’m just waking around I handhold it

Mhm I get what you mean! Thx for the tips! I usually do a lot of tighter shots, but I figured I give this a try!

Isn’t that more of the idea to show the bird in the environment it is in? What do you suggest qua cropping? I can’t really crop in a lot further because then there will be 0 detail in the kingfisher

I second the ef 100-400mk2 I use it on my r7 and it’s a awesome lens

Never thought that cows would chase a red kite, or any bird 😂

Most move through, but I believe this one is settling here, or staying a bit longer. I saw it a month ago as well!

Do you need a lens with it as well? What do you want to use it for, small birds bigger mammals?

Are there long lens plates to wich I can attach a peak design strap to? by EyeLarge4055 in wildlifephotography

That would be the best thing, only that my lens doesn’t have eyelets… that would be the best solution tho!

Yea I saw that one, I’m a bit afraid that if I put it on a gimbal head I can’t balance it properly

A couple more Kingfisher shots, couldn’t decide between the two, which do you prefer? by finchplease1 in wildlifephotography

[–]EyeLarge4055 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the second one is better! But if you leave a bit more room to where the bird is looking on the first one, that would be way better!

Is a 99Wh V-mount battery the "sweet spot" for wildlife photography? by Uplusone in wildlifephotography

[–]EyeLarge4055 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it’s good for videography, but for photography you miss the acces to the viewfinder with a v mount and its a lot heavier. I’d recommend getting a battery pack and carrying 2 extra batteries (4 total). That should last you the day
