- I take my D850, my D500 and the Nikkor 200-500 out in search of feeding osprey and I find them. I wanted to see which camera handled the fast action of these birds.

Why would anybody think Nikon is dead when two of the best cameras are in their line up. This is from a Canon user.
Oh my God that image of the golden color wave was so amazing.
Thanks
I cant even explain the joy I get in watching your videos. Highly informative and entertaining
Just joined the channel yesterday and cannot stop watching. Very humble and informative. I also own a D500 and am getting a 200-500 this week, so I love all the tips. Thanks ... GREAT CHANNEL!!!
One of my favorite wildlife photographer. You are not just an amazing photographer but a great storyteller. It makes your video more enjoyable to watch.
Thank you so much for the great compliments. I really appreciate it.
WOW! Not only awesome photography on your part, but educational as well. And those Osprey...I never knew, incredible. Great presentation and comparison of two great Nikons.
Thanks so much!
special stuff mate, big thanks... wide mouthed at the skill capturing this sequence, well done, pure quality....
Thank you. It was a lot of fun!
All I want for Christmas is the Nikkor 200-500 to make my D500 complete!!!!! Thanks again Mark, your videos tell a story and that's what sets you apart from other youtube channels. I feel like I'm with you on your trips watching these videos, keep up the great work!
You are welcome. Thanks for the compliments and watching. I'm glad you enjoyed the video!
I’m thinking that’s going to be my treat to myself. Super combo!
Mark, thanks very much for taking us along for the ride' this was a wicked video. You are really good at doing these types of videos, the commentary and explanations are the icing on the cake.
Top work as always.
thanks and cheers from the UK

+AoToGo Thanks so much for watching and the great compliments. I'm happy to have brought you along for the ride.
one of THE best photo blog episodes i have ever seen! Great stuff Mark !
Thank you!
Ken Wheeler said it was a great video,, and it didn't disappoint.
I learned a lot.
Thanks.
+J. Williams Awesome. Thanks for coming by.
Thanks Mark from "down under"... tremendous work, and your "no fuss" approach appreciated. That wave shot really something. Been weighing up the 500 from my 7100 for bird shots! Cheers
Thank you for watching. I appreciate it and the kind words. I really liked the wave shot as well. I love being able to freeze time like that and then step back and look at that moment to see all the detail. The D500 is a great camera for birds. I've never shot the D7100 so I can't compare the two.
Great presentation . You answered the exact challenge I have been looking seeking to solve. Nice work.
Thanks for another amazing video Mark, totally awesome. I cannot believe all the detail that the 850 captures, that is amazing.
+Phillip Truitt You are welcome. The detail is very impressive!
I have been shooting with a d5200 now for four years. I have gotten good enough now and I want some new gear! I had every intention of buying a d7200 or d7500. No more. I have seen too much of the d500 on several reviewer sites. Mark...yours sealed it for me. Love the shots. Love the narration. Love this camera!
The D500 is an incredible camera and a big upgrade from the D5200. Enjoy it!
Another great video with excellent info Mark, you really know your bird behaviour. Your enthusiasm for the subject really comes through in your presentation, birding and bird photography really is a passion and a release from the day to day grind.
Thanks a lot. Birds and their behavior amaze me. Being out in nature really is an excellent way to escape from the day to day life. Thanks for watching and for the kind words.
I've watched a bit over a minute of this video, paused and subscribed, and went back to watching it. And I'm not even into wildlife photography at all.
Fantastic work. Great photos, nice video footage and very interesting commentary to wrap it up nicely. Keep em coming.
+Krzysztof Kurzaj Thanks. That is awesome of you to say! I've got plenty more working in the old brain.
Insane detail in the Osprey's eye! And that shot of the golden, sun-drenched wave was sublime. Good work Mark.
Thanks. I really like shooting the waves. They made for some neat colors and who could ignore that Osprey. Incredible detail for sure. Thanks for watching.
Great Vid and Stills. I live in Scottsdale AZ and live with a canal behind my house. On the other side of the canal is a very large power pole with acts as a "T" in the line system. This has resulted in large wooden beams connected as part of the structure at the top of the pole. I have come to call this my Raptor Pole, and as a photographer, it has offered up the greatest opportunities I have ever had. Just last year 2017 I glanced out toward the pole from my office and there was very large bird up there. I grabbed my camera and from my patio took a bunch of images. Before I had a chance to look at the images om a computer I thought it was an immature Bald Eagle. But once on he could be more clearly I realized this was my first Osprey, Sitting on top of the pole eating a large sunfish. a gorgeous bird.
Thanks for the compliments and for sharing your story. Sounds like you had a great time!
This is a great vid' Mark.
Very interesting and informative.
The shots are really great, some amazing stuff going on near the end, and I love Osprey!
Thank you! The Osprey were putting on a show for me that day. I had a great time out there.
Video and stills are incredible. The one behind you was amazing.
That fish around 6:15 certainly did not 'live to see another day'! There are lots of ospreys around where I work, in the summer and fall, and it's quite common to see fish that've been dropped during exactly this sort of osprey-vs.-osprey chase. Such fish are easy to identify, too; they're the ones floating at the surface with giant slashes torn in them - sometimes all the way through them - by the enormous talons of an osprey's feet.
(Incidentally, I strongly favor the D500/200-500 combo myself! Very much agreed that it's the best wildlife/BIF equipment at its price point. And, unlike the much larger and more expensive 500mm f/4, I can _just_ fit the body and lens into a Lowepro pack for everyday carry, so that I don't have to plan more than a minute or two ahead to get great shots. Awesome channel! Just found it today, looking forward to digging in more.)
Fantastic captures of Ospreys. Not only have you captured great images, but have revealed some great insight on Osprey behavior and life.
Thanks for the great compliments!
Fantastic shots and I love the passion for the wildlife. Very happy to subscribe and watch more.
So happy to have come across your channel, just what I've been looking for. You are doing the type of photography I'm interested in and in Florida too! Wow, great photo's and thanks for the camera setting you provide.
Thanks for watching and for the great compliments.
I grew up on Cape Cod and there are today osprey all over the place and they are magnificent birds to watch. I love the way they carry fish through the air in their talons.
+h1an yhb7 Me too. It's cool how they swap them around so they become more aerodynamic.
Beautiful results: You and Nikon are a great combo!
Thank you!
Thanks again for a fantastic job getting this and all your videos together for a very interesting viewing. I learn a lot from your videos and also own a D500 myself which just happens to be one all around great camera. Not able to afford the 200-500 but perhaps in my next lifetime. Hope you keep us viewers busy with your great works in the future.!
Thanks for watching and the kind words. I'm glad the videos are useful!
Thanks Mark, I have both cameras and wanted to see what results you came up with. And your experience matches my own.
I'm back again. Just saw your Nikon 200-500 video you published last April which answered my below question of the Nikon vs Tammy 150-600 v1. Again, THANKS for your great videos which I just recently discovered. Will be booking trip with you when I next visit Florida (where I used to live).
Thanks for watching. I'm glad you enjoy them. Let me know when you would like to go out and we will have a great time.
Stunning shot on the wave, WOW!! This is by far my favorite video. Great job Mark.
Thank a lot. I liked that wave shot too. It amazed me afterwards. Thanks for watching.
I hear you on the d500 speed I have one and love it. However wow the image quality on the D850 is pure insanity. Beautiful pics. Nice video as well.
Thanks. You are right too. There is a trade off. The D850 super detail. The D500 super speed!
Awesome photos! It is amazing to get all that clarity with being handheld!
Thanks!
Love listening to your narratives!
Thanks!
Another great video Mark, your videos are some of the best on RUclips! Thanks.
Thank you so much. That is so nice of you to say!
Amazing shots! I throughly enjoyed this one! Gorgeous birds. And that wave shot is just amazing!
+Misty Talbert Thank you!
Man, I love this channel. Incredible pictures it is so nice to come down here and watch these amazing videos. The d850 is an awesome camera indeed.
Thanks so much for the great compliments. I'm having a great time making the videos. The D850 is very impressive.
Thanks a lot! I love this video because i have the D500 and the 200-500 Nikkor.
You are welcome!
You're so enthusiastic - great stuff.
Hi Mark
I am running out of superlatives for your images, they are utterly stunning as well as being something to aspire to capturing. Thanks again for sharing 👏👏👍
Wow, what a great outing, those photos are really wild! You really show what the Osprey goes through for a meal. Great pics Mark!
Thanks! Those Osprey really do have a lot of work cut out for them but they catch fish so well! It always impresses me. Could you imagine trying to jump head first into the water and grabbing a fish with your hands? That would be tough!
Very much enjoyed the video Mark - your enthusiasm really comes through. I've been lucky enough to photograph Ospreys from a hide in the UK, but to see them fish in that open environment must be an awesome experience.
+Paul Miguel Photography Glad you enjoyed the video. It was totally incredible watching them catch food.
Love the insightful stories behind your shots, keep them coming.
Thanks!
Wow dude. One of the coolest reviews and I have been knee deep on RUclips trying to find a camera to buy. I also learned something about a beautiful animal which is awesome.
I am stuck between getting an a7iii or one of these higher end nikons.
Time will tell!
Thanks so much. I think you would be fine with either. It is the ecosystem that you are buying into that needs the most attention. Right now, Nikon has far more really high quality glass and they are about release a mirrorless to compete with Sony. Sony is starting to produce good g lass though so it would be a tough decision for sure.
A stunning piece of work Mark. Thank you for your hard work in making this video.
Thank you so much for the kind words and for watching.
Those are just some amazing shots of an amazing bird. I also love the majestic osprey. Enjoyed your commentary very much. Happy shooting!
Thanks so much. It was a great time.
Ken sent me here and I’m loving it.
Thanks
Awesome. THank you!
Another great video Mark!! Amazing detail in your shots. Really awesome how the Osprey feeds. You make it sound and look easy to photograph, which I'm sure it is not. Well done.
Thank so much. Those osprey were incredible and I am so lucky to have been there to witness their awesome behavior. I can't say that it was difficult because I was having far too much fun!
Great video - goo advice with excellent examples - love your enthusiasm!
Thanks
I enjoyed the examples instead of the host just talking. Thanks Mark Very informative especially with those settings that where displayed.
You are welcome and thanks for watching.
Your vids (Stills) and story telling are very good. Surprised you don't have 1M plus Subs. Well done, Mark!
Just found your channel,great stuff and you've convinced me to sell my d300s and go for the d500.
Thanks!
What an amazing bird... Thank you for sharing these beautiful shots!
Agreed and you are very welcome.
This video is exactly what I was looking for, best body for my 200-500mm for sports and wildlife photography. Thanks.
You are welcome. Glad you enjoyed the video.
Awesome video Marc. Congratulations on the 5000 markI Ilook forward to your videos which you do incrediible job on. They are great and educational too. thanks again
Thanks so much!
Wow!...lucky i found this channel. I learn a lot in your channel Mark. Thank you!
An amazing video. Great photography, Mark! Just subscribed. Showing exposure data like you do is also very helpful.
+Richard Grudzien Thanks. Glad you are enjoying the videos.
You are a great photographer Mark! Loved your sequence of shots and accompanying explanation.
Thanks so much. That is very nice of you to say. Glad you enjoyed the video.
Fabulous!!! I think this is one of your best videos! Thank you Mark!
Thank you! I'm slowly working towards improvement with each one.
Nice video. Those diving photos are incredible! Thank you.
Thanks so much.
Super enjoyed your video Mark! I have the 500 and 850 too, and have been struggling to find out which to use for Wildlife. Your points and reasons for choosing the 500 in this scenario are spot on. I know my technique needs work, and the 850 really magnifies that. So capturing fast action I have relegated to the 500, and landscape to the 850.....on a tripod..lol. But, I would like to try the 200-500 on the 850 to get closeups since it does deliver the details! Again, great video!
Thanks so much!
Thank for the informative video. Just got my D500 today and osprey are the #1 reason I got this camera....I want to catch them fishing and I hope to be able to get some great shots like yours one day!!!
Thanks for watching
Superb as always Mark. I have the D500 and have no inclination to change it as I'm so pleased with it. But crikey, those close ups of the Osprey on the bridge were just awesome with the D850. Best wishes from the U.K.
Thanks and yes, when you can get close, the D850 capture amazing detail. Those shots really blew me away.
Absolutely fantastic ! So interesting presentation. Thanks to share
Great shots, information and footage. Appreciate the 2 camera comparisons for the job of wildlife shooting you had in mind here. Thank you.
Thanks! I'm glad you are enjoying the videos.
Great video with spectacular images! Thanks!
Thank you!
Hi there Mark, Richard here in Cambridge England, I took Ken Wheeler's tip to watch your channel and as ever his advice is sound!. Such a pleasure to see someone in action getting really excited shooting and thanks too for the shooting info, shutter speed and aperture etc. every little helps!. Richard.
+Richard Harvey Thanks for stoppong by. It was really awesome of ken to do that for me. Glad you are enjoying the videos!
Love love love your videos! Planning to buy a camera for birding and you are a big help. Sounds like the D500 is the best. It will be my first purchase of a Dslr !
Thanks so much. The D500 is a great camera!
Ken tipped me, great video.
This is a good proven sample why one camera superseded another for a particular situation .
Thanks for sharing
Keep up the good work
Thank you!
I spend a lot of time this time of year shooting the eagles as they hunt at the dam near me, but this was insane! It seems a lot riskier for the ospreys to dive, especially when they spend that much time in the water. It’s amazing that they can get out. Loved the video.
Thanks. Shooting eagles is always fun but they are harder to find down here. I know where there is a pair and I have managed some good shots of them this summer. I'll have to put together a video of that too. As far as the Ospreys go, yeah they are incredible birds and seeing them do this over and over again never gets old. They have a lot of work cut out for them.
LOVE YOUR VIDEOS AND GREAT SHOTS! i ALSO LOVE HOW YOU PRESENT THE STORIES OF YOUR PICTURES.
Thank you!
Awesome job Mark. Your videos are improving all the time
Jim
Thanks so much!
Also, that 200-500 becomes 300-750 with the D500, giving you much more apparent zoom. I love my 500 and pair it with a D610 for landscape or slower work. Nice vid!
I love mine too but I also love the d850. Great combo!
Great video! Always a pleasure after a long day of work!👌🏻
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it.
Wonderful shots of some fabulous birds! Thank you!
+Laurie Wilson Thank you!
Awesome and totally captivating video! I’m trying to figure out if the D500 is for me or a full frame so this really helped! Thank u very much✌️
You are welcome and thanks for watching.
Loved this. Fantastic. Specially since I just bought a D500!!
Thanks. The D500 is a fantastic camera!
I love your story telling
Thanks!
Great work Mark! Fabulous photos with both cameras 👏
Thank you very much.
great job Mark, you have captured my favourite Bird in action, Lesson of Nature
Thanks! Osprey are incredible birds.
Wow, what a great video. Full of interesting wildlife and bonus camera setting information. Brilliant stuff. I've now subscribed.
Thank you!
Awesome! Your work is so inspiring.
Thanks!
Amazing shots!!!
WOW, you took some amazing photos. That D850 looks like it has amazing definition. I'm jealous. Great channel, love what you do!
Thanks so much. The D850 does capture some great detail. Thanks for watching.
I'm jealous about how much cool wildlife you get to photograph!
Master Mark you're the best, thanks for such great videos.
Thank you!
Another awesome video and an awesome bird. We only get to see them up here for a few months in the warmer weather.
Just can't beat the speed of the 500. I'm finally getting the hang of it and getting some great shots. I've been considering the Manfrotto gimble. I'm a hand held guy mostly.
Thanks! The D500 is crazy good! I use the gimbal mostly for video work and it works very well.
Dude, truly great video. I have the D500 to shoot my daughter's softball games and it is a great sport shooters camera. I really loved the photos you had here. Glad I stumbled on this one...
Thanks so much. The D500 is a great camera!
Great video - had a chance to shoot some Osprey earlier this year with a D500 and that 200-500 while I do not have the D850 to compare I can say I'm very happy with that lens-body combo. Keep these vid's coming
Thank you! The D500 is great with the 200-500. You will have plenty of great photos with those two.
Great job Mark love watching your videos.
+Edwin Maldonado Thank you!
Wonderful video, Mark. Compelling captures and very interesting commentary. Well done. And thanks.
+Ira Bruce Levine Thanks! I had a great time making it.
Mark, I’d LOVE to see some video of you, eye at the viewfinder, shooting an action sequence, along with any other info you can relay on what you’re doing during the actual moments of firing off the camera. I think your technique is a BIG part of your success in getting great images, and I love the glimpses I get of the way you hold and move the camera. I can put most of the elements together, but would love to see you focus on what you’re doing/thinking/feeling in the few seconds while you’re mashing the shutter button down.
That sounds like a great idea. I just thought the majority of people would get bored with something like that. I'll have to try and include some more stuff like that.
Breath taking shots! All the best. Look forward to even more. Jim in NJ.
Thanks!
Just Amazing! Awesome stuff!
Thanks!
What a fabulous video. I think your channel must be my favourite subscription just now. Thank you!
Thanks. That's great to hear.
Klasse Video !!!!!
Really nice video man. Beautiful pictures too. Thank you.
Thanks!
Awesome photos, awesome skills and awesome gear
Thanks x 3!
Really enjoy your work. Just chose a D500 over a D850. Already have a D800 and it is an awesome camera still. Just need some big glass like the 200-500. Keep up the great story telling. It is so much more than just showing your awesome photography.
Thanks so much for the great compliments. I really appreciate them. The D500 is a great camera. You will love it.
This is just awesome, all beautiful shot, but the ones from D500 are just awesome.
Thanks!
