    0:58 in, would you mind sharing your video settings please? But if you don't shoot with a Canon I guess it wouldn't do me any good, or it might. If you would, share your camera settings for the photos too please. I just unboxed my RF 100-500 and still getting adjusted to shooting with only f/7.1 at times. I'm also interested in shooting video with this lens but I'm a complete newbie when it comes to that because I'm not a videographer. I kind of have a like/don't like relationship with your channel, but please don't take it to heart. I get rude comments occasionally but I don't want to make them on anyone's channel. (The belch at the beginning is a "don't like" by the way.)

      I get it, my personality isn’t for everyone sometimes, including my wife. 😆
      As for other questions, I use a Canon R7 for wildlife videos. I shoot in 4K 120 FPS (in crop mode on the R7 which gives even more reach, but it makes it harder to get stable shots handheld.) and I don’t bother shooting in C LOG for these videos just because there is a whole bunch of stuff you have to worry about.
      I also adjusted my autofocus settings for video, but don’t remember them off hand, but Jan Wegener has a R7 settings video I believe I used to setup my settings for video. If you keep you expose properly you will get good results for video. I handhold most of my video, which provides a lot of movement, but slowing the 120FPS in half will mitigate that.
      If you’re shaky, a tripod is better. But I do find my R6 II to be a bit more stable when the R7 with video. Not sure what camera you’re using. Hope that helped.

      @@IsaiahMcAllisterImagery Oh, sorry, I thought I mentioned that I shoot with a Canon EOR R, and I'm pretty sure its IBS leaves much to be desired so I use a tripod more often than not. And for me, handholding with the 100-500 on can't be for long. Even my 70-200mm f/2.8 L gets heavy after a while.

      Yeah, all I can say is just practice. There are plenty of videos on video. But you can get decent videos straight out of camera. The main focus is just getting settings correct. I misspoke actually, I shoot 60 FPS 4K but your settings are doubled so 1/50 for 24FPS and 1/120 for 60FPS. A variable ND filter may also be a good investment after you get into video.

      Nice Osprey shots! I try to get a local Osprey in flight at a National Park about 1.5 hours from my house. No luck yet. After a day of getting skunked, my wife and I were having dinner at the park lodge with the sun setting. The Osprey flew through the sunset with a huge fish in its talons. Classic shot missed, but beautiful to see. I’d love your flight shots. Nice work!
