WILDLIFE PHOTOGRAPHY How to use AUTOCAPTURE on a Z9 camera. I show an example. - Bird photography

In this video I show how I set up my Nikon Z9 to take photos using AUTOCAPTURE. I show the settings I use and I also set up the camera and let it take pictures in my garden. I have a nesting redstart in a nest box as an example. This method is very useful when you want to get close to the subject without disturbing it.

There will soon be a film about Black Grouse and a description of how I operate a camera out on the bog.

Hi Steven. It works with Raw in Autocapture, but it doesn't yet work in precapture. 😀👍

[@Mr1Spring]

Very nicely done!. Why do you have flicker reduction on? Without it, autocapture focus is perhaps better.

[@Halmstadfoto]

Thank you so much 🙏😀 I didn't know that, so now I have to try it. 😀 Thank you!

[@musiqueetmontagne]

Thanks for this video Goran, I have autocapture on my Z8 too but have never used it, will give it a try. I do use precapture which is great and useful but only JPEGs unfortunately... Cheers, Robert.

Thank you so much Robert and good luck with autocapture. 🙏😀

The only one thing that keeps me out of Z8 is lack of RAW pro-capture. I'd rather go OM-1 for that. For sure I wanna change my gear, but I have mind trouble to which side to go.

@pentagramyt417 I think that Nikon works with it on the Z9 and Z8

*Imagine situations like that **6:47** and conversation with random people*
Someone: What do you do for living?
Person: I am a professional wildlife photographer!
_Meanwhile: Camera on tripod, autocapture set on, A guy sitting in home eating ice-cream, or watching Netflix in local park, waiting for autocapture_

Ha ha😂😂 Nice!
I don't know if this is the development we want, but now when it exists it's just a matter of learning.😀😀👍👍

@@Halmstadfoto I hope there won't be any "AI" automatic photo-change, like RAW image + AI file, that removes branches, makes more shallow depth of field and so so... I mean.. Some things are making everything easier, but some might change photography on the bad side 🥲

[@Halmstadfoto]

I agree with you but still a lot of knowledge is needed to capture an object. Landscape and macro photographers are probably big winners in the future with AI.

[@pentagramyt417]

@@Halmstadfoto I think so.. Imagine you can have lens with f/8.0 on 35 mm lens, and still have AI perfect blurr (I mean as for 1.4 aperture), it will be killing lenses lobby.

Thanks you so much for telling me this feature on the Z9. I definitely will try this in my situation.

Hey Göran,
thank you for this great video. Unfortunately I don’t have a camera with this feature. But I have never thought, that bird photography can be so comfortable . But be careful, this method for shooting photos can be dangerous, if you make it too often a lot of icecream can increase your weight ;-))

[@Halmstadfoto]

Thank you so very much Pedro for your comment. You have to be careful not to gain too much weight. Ha ha😂😂😂

As Always, an enjoyable video. Bit I can't wait for the one about the European bison ❤

[@Halmstadfoto]

Thank you so much Andrew. 🙏😀 That movie comes after the black grouse. 😀😀
