How do birds take pictures?

Shooting birds under natural conditions in the wild requires photographers' shooting skills and equipment selection.

First of all, you must shoot wild birds with a super telephoto lens, at least with a focal length greater than or equal to 300 mm Why? Wild birds are highly vigilant, and photographers are easy to scare away the subjects when they get close, so the lens requirements are relatively hard.

Secondly, before shooting, we need to know the bird's living habits, routine and general distribution area. Birds in flight are not easy to shoot, but birds returning to their nests are easier to shoot, so do your homework before shooting.

After choosing the shooting location, remember to disguise yourself a little to increase your chances of success, such as wearing camouflage clothes and avoiding wearing bright clothes. And in the process of shooting, you need to wait patiently for the subject. A good photo may not be easy to take, and the photographer needs enough patience.

Finally, it is suggested to choose shutter priority mode and servo autofocus. It is suggested that the shutter speed should not be slower than the safety shutter when shooting birds at rest. For example, when shooting with a focal length of 300mm, the shutter speed should not be slower than 1/300 seconds, while ISO recommends that the aperture be automatic in the range of 50-200. When shooting birds in flight, it is suggested that the shutter speed should be11000 seconds, and the ISO is still in the range of 50-200. It will be safer when the aperture is automatic.

Second, shoot birds indoors.

Taking pictures of birds indoors means taking pictures of pet birds and zoo birds. Compared with shooting birds in the wild, it is easier to realize and has the following advantages:

There are all kinds of birds in the zoo for shooting;

(2) The shooting range is limited, and the general hood can shoot;

Birds in the zoo are not afraid of strangers and are easy to get close to shoot.

Camera settings, it is recommended to choose shutter priority mode and servo autofocus, the shutter speed is not slower than the safety shutter, ISO50-200, and the aperture is ignored.

Therefore, when you live in a city, or the focal length of your camera lens is limited, or you can't stand the outdoor environment, you might as well consider taking pictures of birds in the zoo, which is relatively easier to take good-looking photos of birds.
