Nikon D750 Set Up (like the D850) for Bird & Wildlife Photography

- When it comes to setting up the Nikon D750 for bird and wildlife photography, very similar to the Nikon D850, this is how I like to do it. The Nikon D750 is an entry level full frame 24MP camera very popular with beginners right through to professionals. Recently I was asked on my channel if the Nikon D750 can be set up similarly to the more advanced Nikon D850 when it comes to bird and wildlife photography. Short answer is "yes". See how I like to do it showing photo samples from the D750 and I also touch on the best budget telephoto lenses to use with the D750.
You can watch these exact Nikon D750 settings put to the test on my latest video 👉 • Nikon D750 | My BIRD &...

I've been watching all of your D750 videos they've really helped me in deciding my first camera thank you so much!
Outstanding video Adrian. Very well done.
Thank you so much Tim, I really appreciate you watching, cheers 👍🙏📸
Very thorough and easy to follow tutorial! I liked the multi-camera setup. Thanks for the shout-out! :)
Thank you so much Phil. I really appreciate all the support you have given my channel. I enjoy watching your videos, I always come away learning something new. Enjoy the rest of your weekend 👍🙏📸
thanks a lot for this step by step set-up tips.
You are welcome! 🙏
Another very valuable video Adrian. Thanks for going to the trouble to go through all those menu settings mate.
Cheers Richard thanks for watching mate. Really appreciate you commenting. D750 still going strong after 5 years 👍🙏
Updated my D90 to the D750 and your videos & wisdom are invaluable to expand my knowledge. Thank you so much Trevor UK
Happy to help!
Thank you so much Adrian! I've learned so much about the settings and changing buttons, can't wait to shoot some wildlife now🐿️🐦💗
Glad it was helpful. Thank you for watching. I have another D750 video coming out this week 📸🙏
Excellent tutorial. Thank you for the thorough walkthrough of your chosen birding set up. I'm looking forward to getting back out there and trying this out.
Glad it was helpful!
This has been one of the most helpful videos I have watched in the years I have had my D750 thank you!!
Very kind of you to say Ian. Thanks very much for watching 👍🙏📸
Great video! My well-worn classic D750 can hold its own, but I'm considering jumping up into the 780 for priice considerations...
Fabulous video, the instructions were really clear. Loved all the examples and seeing what the camera can do, as well as the other guy’s results with the different lenses. Record button to ISO what a trick!
Thank you so much for watching. Glad you found the video helpful. 👍🙏📸
Great video and pictures as always Adrian 👍
Thank you so much Rod, I really appreciate you taking the time to watch and comment. Have an awesome day 👍🙏📸
Thank you for this useful and informative video.
You are welcome! Thank you for watching 🙏
Good explanations and fabulous shots Adrian 👍
Thanks heaps for watching Andrew. Enjoy the week ahead mate, cheers. 👍🙏📸
Awesome awesome awesome
Thank you
Thank you very much congratulations fantastic vídeo
Many thanks - I appreciate your kind comment 🙏📸
Using the movie record button for ISO sensitivity is a clutch tip! Also thanks for helping me understand the ISO sensitivity settings. Tons of good stuff in this tutorial that I hadn't thought much about, and I've been shooting wildlife with a D750 for a while now.
Many thanks for watching and am so glad it was helpful. Hope you enjoy your D750, cheers 🙏📸
I own a D750 and never knew about that ISO button tip, thanks for that. Great video too by the way, loved your shots.
Appreciate you watching, many thanks 👍🙏
Great video Adrian! It’s interesting to see how you set up your camera. Beautiful tele lenses there too. Have a good one ✌️
Thanks so much for watching. I appreciate it even more knowing the fact you don't own the D750. Look forward to your next video. Enjoy the rest of the weekend, cheers 👍🙏📸
Thumbs up ere' Adrian, great information on the 2 cameras for set up. Always enjoy how well you explain and show your videos and makes it easy to understand. Many thanks for sharing the info - stay safe :)
Thank you so much for the kind comment Shaun. I really appreciate it. Cheers for watching mate and enjoy the rest of your weekend 👍🙏📸
Fantastic intro. Having just got a second -hand D750 to match my Tamron 600 I was flummoxed by the ISO button. You've just made my life a bit easier. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
I am Nikon D750 Fx user , and using Nikon 200-500 lens for bird photography.
Excellent and very useful presentation 👏👏👏👏
Many thanks for watching. Really glad you enjoyed it. Cheers 🙏📸
great video. assigned those buttons as i,m watching this . thanks
Awesome, thank you for watching 🙏
Great advice and tips Adrian, as you probably guess I’m a Pentaxian and a Fuji shooter, but I did enjoy seeing your setup for bird photography and your sample shots were great 👍 Your vlogs are always full of great information 🙂 Thanks for sharing mate 👍 Cheers, Cliff
Thank you so much Cliff. I really appreciate you watching even though you don't have the D750. Very kind of you to comment. Have an amazing week ahead and stay safe over there 👍🙏📸
That was a superb presentation. Excellent review for me. I own both cameras. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching 📸🙏
Adrian thankyou very much for the video your a star really helped a bunch only just had chance to watch but really great info and will look at the lenses you recommended pricey but worth it I guess.once again thankyou.
Cheers Stephen, really appreciate you watching. Thanks very much for the suggestion on doing this video. I'm sure it will help others out too with the D750. If you need any more info, always feel free to ask 👍🙏📸
Thanks Adrian
Great video! I own both cameras and this was a great lesson. When I tackle bird photography I will reference this video. Thanks mate!
Thank you so much Jay for watching. Good to know we both have the D850 and D750. Certainly a great combo. I love the fact the D750 has the "commander mode" for off camera flashes. I use it a lot in real estate and food photography to fire off my 2 x SB-700 flashes, works a treat. Have an awesome Sunday 👍🙏📸
Adrian Alford Photography We must be photography soulmates. I use my D7 50 mostly because of the commander mode as well. I’ve done some real estate photography recently and just this week did some food photographer for my daughter. I also have an SB 700 flash. I will be building a proper studio in my next house and I will get strobes but for now the speed light has worked well
Good Nikon info ! 750 is still a beast of a camera.
Agree with you there. The D750 is a back up camera to my D850. It has served me well. Thank you for watching 👍🙏
The video assign button to iso made my life so easy, thank you so much mate 🇬🇧 keep safe.
Many thanks for watching. Yeah that ISO location is much better on top of the camera than trying to fiddle around the back. Glad it helped mate, cheers 👍🙏📸
@@adrianalfordphotography take care keep up with great work.. 🙌🏼🙏🏼
That,s a great camera maybe one day I might think of buying one.
Thank you very much for watching. You get good bang for ya buck with the D750. Have an awesome week ahead :)
Great tutorial, very clear tips! I currently shoot with a D750 myself. Appreciated the lens suggestions at the end too as I'll be purchasing a telephoto towards the end of the year! Some beautiful photos here too. Hope you're having a great weekend.
Really appreciate your kind comment Courtney, means a lot, thank you. Excited to hear you're getting a telephoto lens for the D750, great stuff. I guess just keep your eye out for special sale prices on those lenses and pounce. They had the Nikon 200-500mm for $1799 here in Australia a week ago which was a great price, gone up again now though. Enjoy the rest of your Sunday and have an awesome week :)
Nice video Adrian especially for novice Nikon users. I'm not a Nikon user but am glad I stopped on until the end as I may be looking at the Tamron 150-600 for my current project so the more information the better. Incidentally I shot Nikon for a while a number of years ago but found the menu system quite difficult to navigate, however, from your video it certainly looks like they have put some work in on this area. Thanks again!👍
Scott Tilley Photography appreciate you watching Scott cheers mate. Yes the Tamron is definitely worth a look, I hear it’s quite sharp. Seen some bird pics with it attached to a Canon and the results were impressive 👍🙏
Great video, I found the back button AE-L/AF-L for focus better and advised to use spot focus not group focus, but what you are doing is definitely working.
Great to hear, thanks for watching 🙏
Hi Adrian, a great video again! Yes, a 600mm f4 were a fine thing, but it's not only expensive, it's also really heavy I guess ;)
I wish you a fantastic weekend and nice greetings from Austria,
Christian
Thank you so much for watching Christian. That 600mm F4 lens would be amazing to use, but you're right, heavy and expensive. Enjoy the week ahead my friend and look forward to your next video 👍🙏📸
Nice video :)
Thanks for the visit
Hi Adrian - Thanks for this video its fantastic and I love this setting on the D750- Quick question for you, when Im setting up for a time laps do I just set the focus once on Af-l button or do I turn off the AF-L button to OFF in that instance ? Thanks Pen
Hi Pen - thanks heaps for watching. If you're doing a time lapse you are correct in that all you have to do is hit the AF button on the back of the camera once to get your initial focus point. Then start your time lapse. The camera will stay focused on that point until your time lapse is finished or until you hit the AF button again and select another point to focus on. Hope this helps. 🙏
@@adrianalfordphotography thank you - yes that makes perfect sense.
Great stuff Adrian as always! I don't have a D750 but I definitely concur with picking up the Z6 if you have an opportunity ;) Have a great weekend!
Cheers Rob - appreciate you watching, even though you don't have the D750. I'm excited to see the 2nd generation mirrorless from Nikon. The Z6 & 7 are good now, imagine they'll try up the res to match Sony A7R4? Enjoy the rest of your weekend 👍🙏📸
@@adrianalfordphotography - I suspect you are probably right that at least one of the second generation Z cameras will try to compete with the A7R4. I'm personally hoping that it will have the vertical grip capabilities and two card slots (both CFExpress?). If so, I'll probably be trading in my D850 on one of those ;)
Definitely. And a drop down protective shutter while changing lenses like the Canon EOS R and I'll be sold.
Great video, I learnt a lot from it. What settings would you use for aviation photography? Any different from from wildlife?
How about lenses?
Exactly the same settings. They're just bigger metal birds 😂 Have an awesome weekend 🙏
Adrian, thanks. I have the following combo: D750+ dumbo. Your video, should change that?👍👍👍
Thank you for watching 👍🙏📸 My video next week I will be putting these settings to the test doing some bird photography with the D750.
Thanks so much for this video. I just traded my DF for the D750 as the DF is ... well ... not for birds and crits. I have the 70-300 E lens, I am thinking of the 200-500 E lens as I don't have that much cash laying around. Cheers!
Can I suggest the Tamron 150-600mm G2 Nikon mount lens Randy for birds and wildlife. I believe it's cheaper and sharper than the Nikon 200-500mm. I have done a review on it. Here is the link: th-cam.com/video/66bSbjNuUGM/w-d-xo.html cheers.
@@adrianalfordphotography hey, thanks, I'll check it out
Hello, Adrian I'm learning a lot from your videos😁I recently bought a d850 following the d750 through a second-hand transaction😅
So first, I changed the setting of the camera the way you told me By the way, I usually want to take pictures of the players at the football stadium, but I have a question
Why did you designate the af-on button function as a group focus method in the d850 setting and set the single focus function in the preview button🤔And is it not good to raise the maximum of ISO sensitivity too much? I wonder if there is a need to designate it as 20,000 or more
I would appreciate it if you could let me know if there is a difference between the setting of the video that is helpful for shooting birds and the setting that is helpful for shooting sports games😉👍
Thanks for watching. I assign my AF-ON button group area focus as that is the focus mode I use mostly for both birds in general and birds in flight. Single point is for birds sitting mainly on branches. Anything over 6400 ISO and your pictures start to get very grainy on both the D850 and D750. However in my next video out next Saturday the 29th of October I use a cheap program to fix high iso issues like noise and it is especially good for birds which I'll show. Have a great weekend 📸🙏
@@adrianalfordphotography Thank you for your kind answer😊 I will also use group focusing often, so I think your setting will be helpful
I still don't understand the concept of ISO, so I will refer to the video that will be uploaded this weekend Thank you👍👏
Hi Adrian nikkor 200-500 or sigma 60-600 who is the better lens. i have a d850 pls tell me
Hello, thank you for watching. Personally, I would go for the Nikon 200-500mm because it is lighter in weight and has the brighter aperture F5.6 at 500mm. But that's just me. Everyone is different. I suggest you investigate each lens thoroughly through reviews (or even hire one first to try) to make sure it's the right lens for you. Have a great day 😀
super tricks ! when bird is still, doesn't GRP focus select the beak instead of the eye,... and so less good than single point ? If we now extend it to fashion photography where the girl moves towards you or perpendicular to you and you focus with GRP on eye. no risk to focus on noze, ears,... instead of eye as we woul have with sony a7r3 or z6II (when it works) ?
Yes go for a7r3 or z6ii if eye detect is important to you. I have proven however that my settings work on the D750 for bird photography in this video th-cam.com/video/i53T2ujxys0/w-d-xo.html
