Not even a month ago, we had the delightful privilege of looking at the winners of the Wildlife Photographer of The Year. Those nineteen pictures, selected among almost fifty thousand entries, are an absolute joy to look at on the screen — I can’t even imagine how much of a pleasure it would be to look at them in print! Luckily, the joy is far from over, and there are further pictures to look at and to vote for.
Nikon decided to do something a little different when launching its bright super-telephoto 400mm for mirrorless — a built-in teleconverter. While teleconverters can be added to any compatible lenses, the process of taking it on and off is time-consuming.
It's never easy to photograph wildlife in its natural habitat. It can take a whole day of waiting to get a glimpse of an elusive animal. And if it catches you unaware, there's always the chance you miss it or don't get the right frame you were looking for.
Hiking at a nearby wildlife refuge was my escape during the COVID-19 lockdowns. Instead of people watching at a crowded shopping center, I escaped to the woods where I wouldn’t see another person for miles and instead watched the birds.
When I’m photographing wildlife, one issue almost always comes up: I’m not close enough. The Canon RF 1200mm f8 L IS USM feels like a cross between a camera lens and a telescope. 1200mm puts a lot of distance between me and skittish wildlife.
Wildlife photography is about to get pretty fascinating in parts of the world with autumn upon us! Thankfully, so many cameras these days can help us find animals and birds in the forest canopy since they're very hard to see.
Fujifilm is well-loved for the colors coming from the X-Trans sensors and film-inspired profiles. But, Fujifilm has lagged behind in terms of the smart autofocus and fast burst speeds coming from Canon, Sony, and Nikon’s flagships.
