Hi, should I get a full frame or a crop sensor camera like nikon d7200 or d700? because I think I need more reach with the nikon 200-500mm. Love your work!!! ❤
As you say, you know your work, your objectives, and your preferred style better than anyone. If you feel that you need more reach, and more creative doorways will open with that extra reach, then yes, absolutely go crop sensor! Ignore those who bang on about differences in quality. The differences are always imperceptible! What matters is that the system enables you to take the kinds of images that you strive to take. Thank you for the kind words!
Thank you sooooo much Andy. Again love your work so good!
But Does nikon d7200 really that chrash? Or I really like really need to wait for money and go woth d500?
That last tiger image sends a shiver down the spine (vegetation related obscenities aside!)!!
🤣 a moment that will live long in my memory! 🐅
Thanks for another great video Andy! And to answer regarding the baboon shot, I prefer your selection that allows viewing the animals more intimately. I feel like there is more emotion and connection.
@@mikearcher6239 my thoughts exactly. This is something that I prioritise in my work.
Thanks Andy…..new subscriber here. These images are all amazing, especially seeing the conditions you endured to get them! I look forward to catching up on other videos and future content!
@mikearcher6239 thanks, Mike. I really appreciate the support and the kind words!
Please could you advise me what metering do you choose with backlit photos ? Thank you
Certainly. I ALWAYS use Matrix metering, in every situation, as both Centre weighted and Spot are too inconsistent. Try to assess the amount of light and dark within the frame, and set your exposure compensation accordingly. Or try Manual, which I use 100% of the time! 👍
Thank you kindly
I think Baboon #3 looks good, but if I was in this situation I would panic and just put random settings in the camera. 😂
🤣 hopefully, by watching my channel, I will be able to share information in such a way that you remain calm in such situations! 🤞
Thanks, hopefully your videos will help.
Hello Andy Can you please make a video on metering?
It's certainly something that I will get covering in future videos 👍
The best spent 15 minutes of my time for many years, thank you. Your narration took me from my warm living room to being beside you on that freezing mountain. As far as the images, the others could be interpreted as the Hare shaking snow off its back whereas the winning image has a rare balance of ferocity and serenity that is not exhibited in any of the other images. Once again thank you.
Beautiful insight and incredibly kind words. I cannot thank you enough!
I have been enjoying your videos Andy and the wealth of information you share. I know they take time to do and produce but chop chop! Can’t wait for the next one.
😁 Thanks, Martha. I'm working on it now, but they are taking so much longer than anticipated! Will hopefully be posting it next week! 👍
Looking forward to it. What will it be about?
Found your channel a few days back. Simply outstanding photography and teaching style! Thank you. I am running through all your videos daily as they are adding more value to my photography than any other tutorial I have seen so far. I wish I had seen your channel before my last trip to Kenya a few weeks back. Andy, it would be great if you could also add the lens focal length to your examples. Mainly application of the Z70-200, Z400, Z600 and Z800PF. Looking forward to your next video. Thank you.
Thank you so much. Comments such as yours mean a great deal and reassure me of my approach. Yes, from now on, full technical details will be included with every image going forward. The next video will hopefully go live next week!
Wow, very thought provoking and inspirational as always!
Thanks, Jane. I'm always so grateful for your support! xx
Stunning descriptions and images Andy as always!
Thanks, always, Jane. Sending love and Indian sweat flies! 🤣😘
@@andyparkinsonphotography 🤣😂🤣 😘
Thanks Andy, very educational video!
@@Rideorhide thank you. I'm delighted that you enjoyed it!
Hello Andy Loves from India Pls make more such informative videos so I can learn wildlife photography more from you. Stay blessed
Thank you, Gautam. More videos are definitely on their way! 👍
Top notch.
Thank you, my friend, my best to you and Dilys.
Very happy to discover this channel. Instant sub
Brilliant, thank you so much, I really appreciate your support!
we as audience would love to see some behind the scenes like how you take the images in field about the whole process.
@princedeol4570 This information is coming up, and some behind the scenes images will be in my next video, coming soon!
It would be great to have such opportunities as you get. Again I value your tips greatly as I always strive for that shot of a lifetime here in the US with limited travel. My use of Nikon Z6iii is a move up from my former Z6ii. I can’t afford the 800mm so resort to 1.4 or 2.0 teleconverter with my Z100-400 S .
@@nathanfrisby3133 that combination will work perfectly well in almost all situations. Only those situations with very marginal light will be more of a struggle! 👊
you are the most underrated wildlife Photographer n youtube, your work is art
@@princedeol4570 thank you for that incredibly kind comment. Hopefully, as I am new to RUclips, more people will find my channel over time! 🤞
Thank you sir for the great advice and tips!
@nathanfrisby3133 and thank you, Nathan, for the kind words. They are greatly appreciated!
Just finished watching all the 5 videos and have to say it's exceptionally insightful. Eagerly waiting for more.

@CharleyHarley01 thank you for your Boon feedback! 🐒
gem of a video.
@chathuradsilva thank you very much, Chathura!
Great video as usual. Are you ever considering doing a video on ‘environmental wildlife portraits’ or ‘wide angle wildlife’ photography? Cheers!
Yes, indeed, you name it, I have the images to illustrate it! Thanks for the positive feedback!
@@andyparkinsonphotography thank you. Will look forward to whenever you decide to do it.
I love your video and picture so much. Thanks and look forward your next videos
@TTWildlife thank you so much. I really appreciate your support!
Every image has a story but none like yours to the extend u and your pals took to get the shot. Can you tell me how do you focus and expose your images in such conditions. One thing I learned about making images is the need to be curated because often what the photographer likes and think is compelling or great isn't how others see it. As u pointed out IG opinions and responds shouldn't be how u value and view your work. I like the shot where you could barely see the hare in the landscape where it lives
wow fantasic ..pictures and ideas
Thanks, Sandra. I really appreciate your support!
amazing video many thanks for sharing all the details, experiences and beautiful memories! I would wonder how this may be applied for underwater photography - I was struggling in arctic Norway photographing orcas with so many particles in the sea in January= with not much light above and under the surface. Many thanks and cannot wait for another video! BR
Thank you, Matej. I really appreciate the kind words. Alas, I have zero experience with underwater/backscatter, so I would 100% look up the brilliant underwater photographer, Alex Mustard!
Another great video Andy👍
Thanks, Dale. It is very much appreciated! 👍
Great and inspiring video - thank you! I could listen to you all day.
😁 thanks, Will. My wife Claire does not share your sentiments! 🤣
This is brilliant Andy - thank you x
Thank you always, Rob. My best to you, Rosy, and your family x
Totally engrossed in both these videos Andy. So inspiring. The lion with zebra kill was mesmerising with even the tick on his right eye adding to the wildness of the image.
Thanks, Kathy. It's really nice to get such positive feedback!
Outstanding video - thank you very much for making it! I find your videos consistently to be superior, and inspirational. Keep up the great work!
Thanks Will, I really appreciate that!
Hareball tells a complete story in my opinion. This tiny bundle of frozen fur at one with its environment. It’s breathtaking.
Thanks, Kathy. Hareball was definitely the overwhelming favourite choice, and thank you for your feedback!
So excited about your new channel. What a privilege for all of us to gain more knowledge and look in wonder at your fabulous work. Can’t wait for more.
I really appreciate your kindness and support, Kathy. It means a great deal!
great video , wonderful tips. stunning pics of a real master
@venkatalgramam4461 that is so incredibly kind, Venkat. Thank you!
WOW, "I'm just a jealous guy". Thank you!
@BelaAcs-m6r thank you so much. Your enthusiasm is so appreciated!
keep up the great info and advice
@hbarwick1 thanks Hal, will do!
congrats turning 75!!!
@@elangwenev 🤣 cheeky! xx
Choosing only one is like splitting hares, in my opinion. 🤣
🤣🤣👏
Excellent insights, thank you Andy
Thanks, Anita. I'm delighted that you enjoyed it!
Another great tutorial Andy, thank you!
Thank you so much for the support Csaba!
I just love your videos, as a photographer I have reached a stage, where clicking a portrait with blurry background, just doesn't do it for me....your videos have encouraged me to go out and experiment more....I am certain you will reach so many followers, that later, my message will be lost in the sea of messages.....hence I thought I should let you know now, how appreciative I am, for sharing your knowledge
@@amitahlawat6717ppppp I really appreciate you taking the time to leave such a kind comment. Thank you, and I hope that you're right! 😊
Great images. Thanks for the knowledgeable details. I wish that you would include the lense information with the shutter speed and ISO. When looking at bokeh, knowing that the lens is at 380mm, 600mm or 800mm matters.
@@alrobinson9183 all videos going forward with have the lens information included! Many thanks!
Wonderful video. Thank you!
@@kerrybrookCA thank you, Kerry!
Amazing advice and stunning images to illustrate your point. If I managed to take just one image as good as any of these, I would die happy!
@SkylarkFields so often it is the ability to create the right opportunity. You got this!
This was an eye opener for me for one particular reason: the use of a smaller aperture. For a long time I have been using the widest I had on my 200-500 f5.6 and although the background is many times soft, I always felt something was missing but couldn’t put my finger on it. What I need to do is to start closing the aperture more and add the surroundings as an actor in the scene as well, as likely that will be the missing ingredient. That might be a hard exercise at first, but now that I have the 180-600 6.3, it should help. Thanks for that, Andy!
Many thanks, Razvan. It's certainly something worth thinking about, in specific situations, thereby giving the image a more painterly feeling by bringing more of the scene into sharp focus!
As always, I enjoy your insight.
Thanks, Tony. As always, I appreciate your support!
Great videos, I am learning a ton. Thank you so much!
@GeorgetownThunder that is so fantastic to hear. Thank you so much!
I have just sat and watched both parts of this and was totally engrossed by your narrative and truly wonderful images, and I enjoyed the stories behind them and the technical tips too. I favour the big cats and love your images of those. Also the bear's paws and claws - spectacular!
@SkylarkFields thank you, I'm thrilled that you also watched Part 1. Your support is so appreciated!
