Beautiful Barn Owl - Canon R7 - Wildlife Photography Vlog #136 I spotted my local Barn Owl hunting mid afternoon so went outside and had a wonderful encounter #wildlife #canonr7 #wildlifephotography #nature #barnowl
Great images of the barn owl both inflight and perched really impressed so i have subbed your channel 👍 i look forward to seeing what you manage to film regards Dave
3000 dollars is not cheap. But for this hobby, the rf 200-800 mm and Canon R7 is a killer combo. Thank you for so effectively demonstrating that. Well done.
Thanks for watching John. I'm using the Ef 100-400 mk2. I haven't got the funds to upgrade to an RF lens yet, but not sure that I will as I love the quality and the combination as it is 😀
Yeah I've been using 30 fps. Haven't had a situation where rolling shutter's been an issue yet. But I can see it being a problem with faster (and closer) subjects. I've seen some really bad examples in some people's shots and worry that I'll ruin that once in a life time, diving kingfisher shot or something! 😬. Have you seen many issues?
Great shots. Could you share your setting on the R7 and how you machined to track the owl in video and also for light shots. I find the R7 jumps in and out of focus in video mode for moving targets like birds. Thanks
Thanks. I'm quite new to the video side of it. Never really tried it when I had dslrs, so everything's in automatic mode in terms of shutter speed, aperture and iso. In the focus settings I have subject tracking on, animal detect and eye tracking enabled. I found it did a fairly good job of keeping the owl in focus but it did lose it a few times
Thanks for watching! I love the R7, I was a bit dubious before I got it and there are a few things that niggle me about it but I've always had Canon so decided to stick with it
