It's testament to you as a human being that you mention viewers who get immense pleasure from your youtube posts. I count myself as one of those but I'm able to go out and photograph as I please. I get the emotional side too. You're a fine exponent of the wildlife photographers craft but probably more important a fine and caring person. Thank you for being just that.
And another great video Paul. I accidentally fell into photography, then later wildlife photography, and if it wasn't for my camera and my wonderful experiences in the field, then I wouldn't be here now. Photography saved my life. It's ok not to be ok.
Thankyou for sharing your experiences with us all 😊. I am mobility restrained and the noise of the Geese just made me smile. You inspire me to make the plans I need to get outside in the midst of a reserve somewhere quiet and just sit, watch the wildlife, and record the wonders that are all around.
Hi Paul, have to say thought this video was one of the best you’ve done since I’ve been subscribing, sometimes it’s just nice to sit and enjoy nature and just photograph what comes along. Also thought your point about people with struggles hopefully getting something out of your videos was just great and shows it’s not just about you. Hats off to you. 😀👍
Greetings Paul, Thanyou for this presentation. I've been a RU-vid follower of you for a short while, enjoying how you do your presentations. You make each feel as though I am sitting next to you watching how you capture your images. Keep up the great work.
I continue to appreciate the reality of your vlog. Showing the cropping does give us a much better idea of what your camera and lens really does. When we see the final crop without the starting photo, it can be pretty depressing. I mean why can't I get something like that? Oh wait, I can!
I love these sort of videos! And you do them so well. I'm always pleased when I get the notification, and watch them as soon as I am able. I usually come away with a new piece of knowledge or idea to try out too! That was a great spot you found there, by the way. Love your little seat - it's just what I need as am in almost constant pain when walking or standing. I called my hubby to have a look. Who knows.... perhaps Father Christmas will bring me one! 😊
nice light with the sun behind you Paul. I like the fact its tough sometimes. If we got loads of keepers every time we went out, maybe we would get bored with it? Thanks for sharing Paul.
Hi Paul, personally I would stick with the vlogs, I like the way it’s received and we learn from the mistakes, which you could have edited out. Great work keep it up, Trevor 👍
Hi Paul. Your is a great help for us newbies. It would be nice if you would give an idea how far away the subject is in addition to the other data you provide. Thanx much Paul
Thank you. I will certainly have a think about this. I also made a video about getting close to Wildlife. You might find the beginning useful where I talk about distance. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-gKiGwUvH7z8.htmlfeature=shared
Hi Paul, thank you for another great video! I’m wondering what shutter mode you use on your R6 (electronic, mechanical or EFC)? I think I could hear the shutter when you were shooting, so I was thinking mechanical or EFC. I’m using an R7 and adapted EF 500 f4 and usually use electronic (H for 15 fps). Also, if your 500mm is a version 1, can you tell me what replacement foot you have attached? Cheers. -Mark in California
Hi Mark. I'm using Electronic first curtain here, I often use it if I'm expecting action as it avoids rolling shutter.. and it's quieter than mechanical. I do use electroinc often though. Out of interest, can you tell me how you change that frame rate to 15 fps, in electronic, on the R7.. I couldn't figure it out when i borrowed one! Yes, the lens is version 1 and It's a Kirk lens foot.. been excelllent.
@@PaulMiguelPhotography thanks for the info on your usage of EFC vs Electronic, totally makes sense! As for the R7's frame rate: "H+" is 30fps and "H" is 15fps. To change frame rate, I hit the "Q" button and change it on that menu that pops up. I think shutter speed is on the left side of the screen, 3rd from the top. I seem to have better results with 15fps than I get with 30.
Just to add: with Mechanical and EFC shutter on the R7, the frame rates are significantly different than Electronic. For those two options, "H+" is 15fps and "H" is 7-8 fps. Kinda confusing for Canon to mix it up like that.
