  • Autofocus Settings For Wildlife Photography. Sabine explains how the autofocus modes work and the autofocus settings which she uses the most. She also discusses how to select the focal points selection as well as how to change the autofocus tracking sensitivity. Although she is using a Canon camera, the settings for Nikon and Sony (as well as all the major brands) are included in her video.

    great tutorial, i don't shoot wildlife at all but weddings. After moving 5 years ago from 5diii and 1dxii to canon mirrorless, ive just made the leap back grabbing myself a couple of 5div, this has helped me no end set back up for tracking, only 5 years but crazy how i have the Sony menus and operation programmed into the brain. thanks again.

  • @peterevans3247
    @peterevans3247 11 месяцев назад

    G'day Sabine. Well I have just finished watching this vid and I have to say that in my opinion I consider it excellent and right on target. Because I have had a little trouble with sharpness in my sport images I have spent the afternoon going through quite a few videos on using Autofocus for sport, action and wildlife. For me, apart from the fact that your a lot easier on the eye than the blokes I have been watching, yours was the best, the points you raised were both just what I needed and straight to the point without a lot of waffle. I haven't been to The Chobe but I have been to The Etosha in Namibia but that was during 1998/90 when I served with the Australian Army on a UN Mission so I really didn't have the time to enjoy it to the fullest. Loved the country and always wanted to go back. PS: Love you accent !! 😀

  • @boatman222345
    @boatman222345 3 месяца назад

    Another excellent tutorial on today's incredibly capable but somewhat complex and confusing auto focus systems. For years I ran custom boat tours for nature and wildlife photographers and I lost count of how many times I discovered that they had literally no understanding of how their camera's autofocus systems worked. It may be time consuming and at times frustrating to fully understand the many focusing options available in your camera but it is essential that you do so as these features will if set incorrectly totally destroy image quality. Watch this video 4 times then read your camera's manual 4 more. Then experiment and find the settings that work best for you!

    Im 6:30 minutes in and Im blown away how well you explain these things. Im often very confused about focus modes and always ask about those setting when I see ppl posting amazing photos. I have the Sony a7IV and 200-600mm btw. Im kinda "advanced beginner" I would say.
    Ive seen sooooo many videos about this and they are all too technical for us beginners.
    But this video is freaking amazing. Thank you so much for your time 👌

    Great presentation. Would love to return to Chobe soon to experience the unique environment again. I need to understand why the AF settings, especially the Cases and its different settings is important and needs to be set. Very few of us use Zone AF or auto AF, and it is only in these selections where the AF settings take effect. I use a 7DII and a 5DIII with various L-lenses and would appreciate info to to be proven wrong. It would open a new capability for me. To date I had to practice and apply the following technique by hand controlling the camera.
