How To Nail The Shot - Tanzania Edition

  • And now for something a little different 🙂
    Sometimes I think one of the best ways to get better at wildlife photography is to study how other photographers approach their shots. You know, what settings they use, why they use them, what they are thinking in the field - that sort of thing.
    So, I decided to try to do that with this video.
    In this video, we’ll look at eight of my images from my recent trip to Tanzania and I’ll share my settings along with why I used them. Not only that, I’ll also share the challenges of each shot and how I handled them in the field. This is a little different; let me know if you want me to do more of these kinds of videos in addition to my regular fare. Enjoy!

    Yes please do more of these! This was really informative and educational as to what to expect in the wild! Thank you Steve!

    These “how to nail the shot” videos are fantastic. This is the best way to teach and share real - in the field - tips and tricks. I really like what you do with your channel.

    Great video. I appreciated the discussion points on aperture, shutter speed and ISO for different animals/situations. It was also very helpful to learn some strategies to optimize keeper photos, i.e. keep shooting, lower shutter speed and ISO. You made a great point with the cheetahs that not all animals have to be in focus to make a great pic, which is a learning moment for me as well.

    Very interesting Steve. More of the same? Yes please. Also, you mentioned you had to do some layering in Photoshop following the use of a couple of Topaz’s products to make the best of a very high ISO image - would really appreciate seeing your workflow on that. I’ve recovered some lovely BIF images from very noisy RAW files using Topaz DeNoise RAW and Sharpen AI but, they always seem to lose too much feather detail.

      +1 to this comment. Time to update your video on noise reduction with these new tools, Steve!

    I purchased “secrets to stunning wildlife photography”. Your prices are super reasonable, and the content is excellent.

    The great hints with your sharing of your knowledge, skill’s & experience (especially taking longer bursts when bringing down the shutter to get more keepers) will help us all to mail more shots! Thanks for these types of postings. 👏

    I wasn’t altogether sure that this format would work but I have to say it really does work. The thought process behind the shot is both informative and educational. Thanks for posting and trying something different.

    Mr Perry, I find your videos extremely helpful as well as inspiring, thank you. Your images of the lion in black and white and of the leopardess are beautiful. One tip I would like to share is that cats, all sizes, not just the big ones, always yawn twice. Thank you again.

  • @davidb9547
    @davidb9547 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Absolutely do more videos like this. Sharing the stories of how and why and showing the results was wonderful.

  • @jstephens62
    @jstephens62 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    I appreciate how you talked about technique rather than gear. We get so hung up on this camera or that lens that we fail to give enough thought on how to use the equipment we have. I had never thought about reducing shutter speed and ISO with the same subject over multiple shots. That is a simple thing to do instead of guessing on the proper settings which is what I normally do. Well done.

  • @gailpalmer6036
    @gailpalmer6036 2 ปีที่แล้ว

  • @jackpinoh

    Please do more of these. And in addition to the exposure settings and frame rate, please discuss your focus point and settings (area vs pt, continuous vs single, tracking, etc.).

    even if some of the advices are a reminder for me, it´s good to hear them again.
    when your are out there it´s easy to forget even the simpliest rules ;-)
