Everything in this video is fantastic! Especially the last one with the moon in the background, I really like that one! And the video of the Greenshank is awesome!
Superb video Mike, Norfolk is such a great place for wildlife photography. I have been to Snettisham, Titchwell Marsh and Stumpshaw Fen, all great RSPB reserves. Just a bit of a drive for me from Shropshire so I tend to go for a few nights
Well Done, Mike, this really shows video photography at its best. Once again you have put yourself in the right place, with the right plan and the right execution of that plan. I am grateful for your advice and regularly in awe at your images. Your mastery of video is helping me, and many other photographers, to think out of the box. Thank-you
I look forward to Saturday mornings here in Australia when your videos pop up as regularly as clockwork. I'm slowly compiling a list of places to visit in the UK because of this video Snettisham in Norfolk has just been added. I've never been to that part of the UK. We have a similar spot close to Brisbane which is a very reliable spot for waders. I find these birds very difficult to identify and can't believe how they can fly so close together in the numbers they do without colliding. Keep them coming!
Another lovely video Mike. I’m impressed with you getting there by 0430! I’d love to know what alarm clock you use as I’m sure mine hasn’t got that setting on it😃!
Had you seen the off script diving before. The bird either wanted a good bath or was just having fun so it appeared. Either way fun to watch thank you.
OMG! What a wonderfull footage. Previously I struggle to appreciate the quality of your footage from GH6, but I realised that it was YT doing some funky things scaling the picture down to 1440p for my 2,5K montor. When I displayed it in 4K on my other - 5K monitor it looks AMAZING! An with that softer light at 120p (180 degree shutter angle?) all that strobe effect disappeared. It was so fluid and pleasing to the eye despite heavy action.
Wonderful! The Greenshank sequence was amazing!! Thank you Mike! I’m also thinking about the GH6 for video, but hoping that OM will bring a FW update to the OM1 allowing 4K120 some day…
Mike Great video - thank you. Panasonic autofocus (contrast based) often works at its best when the camera has "depth from de-focus" information from the lens - which I think is only the case with Panasonic's own lenses. How are you finding the GH6/Olympus lens combination for video autofocus? Malcolm
@@MikeLaneFRPS cheers for that. I am thinking about either the Manfrotto 502 or the Benro S8 which is atleast a 1/3rd more expensive. In your opinion is the S8 worth it?
@@MikeLaneFRPS Cheers and thank you. I am from New Zealand, now living in Northern Ireland. New Zealand has trade deals with China and benro gear is half the price that it is in the UK.
That shot with the moon in the background is absolutely brilliant!
"Did not read the manual" - This will rank as one of the best photographer complaints 🙂
The final shot was brilliant!
Awesome video Mike, loved it. Stunning images of the Harriers and the shortie, and the eagles and the Robins.... Thanks for sharing 📸👍🏽
Glad you enjoyed it
Smashing video Mike.
Great video Mike, fantastic captures of some lovely subjects
Glad you enjoyed it
Greenshanks having a wash are a treat to watch. I managed a set I was pleased with at Drift Reservoir, Penzance back in September.
Great video and pictures. Thanks for sharing Mike.
Thanks for watching
Wonderful photography and video.
Many thanks!
Oh that greenshank was absolutely delightful - having so much fun splashing around! Wonderful to watch!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Lovely.. 👍
Thank you! Cheers!
Mike, thanks for sharing all your nice videos. The scene starting @4:44 for me.
Glad you enjoyed it
Wonderfull video!
Thank you very much!

Really enjoyed the crazy Greenshank sequence. A good choice of music. What a great opportunity for bird photographers. Thanks
Glad you enjoyed it
That’s one happy Redshank!
Very
Great video MIke. I loved the slow motion clip of the Greenshank. Beautiful.
Thanks
Good job man! Keep posting!
Thank you.
Thanks for posting, Mike. That crazy greenshank was hilarious. :)
Beautiful video as always. Thank you so much👌
Greenshank maybe doing some get away from predator training 🤔😃 Amazing number of waders!
unbelievable number of birds, perfect videos and shots, thank you for sharing
Welcome

It really is!

Great video Mike you can't get better than wildlife
Thanks
Excellent video and really interesting as always. Your work and informative commentary is very much appreciated . Best wishes
Thanks
Well done Mike, tremendous photography. Btw, Bradgate is looking wonderful atm.
Many thanks!
Lovely film of this amazing spectacle. Must be gutting to have some great clips spoiled by the sensor hair. Will you attempt to remove it?
No its too difficult
I'm a bit surprised there wasn't a Peregrine in that big flock of knots. It's early morning, the falcons must be hungry from a night's fasting...

John, it is only good on the few high tides each year. They are listed on the RSPB website,
@@MikeLaneFRPS Thanks for that. I'll look into it.
Hi Mike, great video, I went on the Wednesday and have never seen so many people there , also the best spectacular I have seen
Glad you enjoyed it
Another lovely video Mike. I’m impressed with you getting there by 0430! I’d love to know what alarm clock you use as I’m sure mine hasn’t got that setting on it😃!
I finding harder to find the setting as I get older.

Lovely footage Mike, great slow-motion footage shame about the dust and hair.
Glad you enjoyed it

It will not. Its processor is not optimized for that. This is a hardware limitation.
Mike Great video - thank you. Panasonic autofocus (contrast based) often works at its best when the camera has "depth from de-focus" information from the lens - which I think is only the case with Panasonic's own lenses. How are you finding the GH6/Olympus lens combination for video autofocus? Malcolm
I have not really tried to compare AF in video between the 2. But suspect the GH6 is better.
How do you like the GH6, in comparison to the OM-1?
I take video with the Gh6 and stills with the OM-1 so I can't compare.
Mike what fluid head are you using now days please
Benro S8 for walking a long way. Vinten Blue when close to xar. It is heavy.
@@MikeLaneFRPS cheers for that.
I am thinking about either the Manfrotto 502 or the Benro S8 which is atleast a 1/3rd more expensive.
In your opinion is the S8 worth it?
@@tonyfluertynaturephotograp5272 I don't think there is much difference in them.
@@MikeLaneFRPS Cheers and thank you.
I am from New Zealand, now living in Northern Ireland.
New Zealand has trade deals with China and benro gear is half the price that it is in the UK.
