What kind of camouflage clothes does the shooter choose?

It is recommended to wear plain clothes instead of brightly colored clothes.

1. Equipment preparation for bird shooting. The most important requirement of the equipment is the lens. You need to have enough focal length to shoot birds without disturbing them. It is the most basic to ensure that the focal length of 200mm is the most basic. It would be better if you can use a lens with a longer focal length, such as 400mm and 600 mm lenses. It is good to have a telephoto at hand, but you don't have to spend a lot of money to buy a telephoto if the focal length is not enough. We can compromise and buy a magnifying glass to increase the focal length, but the picture quality is a little worse than using telephoto directly. As for the requirements for the camera body, there is actually no special requirement. High, medium and low-grade cameras can be used. Of course, it is best to use a high-end camera. After all, continuous shooting speed, focusing speed, and image quality all go up a flight of stairs. Because the telephoto lens is huge after all, it is not realistic to shoot by hand all the time. In order to reduce the photographer's physical consumption and improve the stability when shooting, tripod is a necessity and very useful. You must have a tripod to shoot birds.

2. In terms of camera settings, camera parameter settings are very particular, mainly including metering mode, shooting mode and focusing mode.

① Photometric mode Shooting birds, we usually put the bird as the main body in the middle of the picture, so the photometric mode generally uses the central key to average photometry, which is also the first choice for most birdwatchers. If the bird is not in the center of the picture, we need to use spot metering mode to ensure the exposure of the bird. Spot metering mode is also often used to shoot birds.

(2) Shooting mode For bird shooting, if you want to shoot birds in flight clearly, you need a faster shutter speed. Because the shutter speed is not fast enough, it will cause birds to blur when flying, so you must ensure the shutter speed. In shooting mode, we can choose shutter priority to ensure shutter speed.

(3) Most focused birds have been caught. After all, the bird will not cooperate with the photographer's arrangement, so we can only cooperate with the bird to capture the wonderful moment of the bird with high-speed continuous shooting. In the case of high-speed continuous shooting, we need to choose servo autofocus as the focusing method, which is also called continuous focusing, so as to ensure that the focus always falls on the bird.

3. If you want to shoot birds, you must first learn to find birds and prepare equipment before you can shoot birds, but the question is, where to shoot them? Where can I shoot birds? Let's listen to Bian Xiao's advice ... ① It's easy and convenient to go to the zoo to shoot birds. It has the following advantages: the birds in the zoo are trapped in a certain venue, which reduces the requirements for our equipment and can be photographed with a shorter telephoto. Because the birds in the zoo have been watching for a long time, they are not afraid of people, which is convenient for us to take pictures calmly. There are many kinds of birds in the zoo, which is convenient for us to take pictures of all kinds of birds. The zoo is flat and easy to shoot, which saves us the trouble of wading through mountains to find it.

Of course, shooting birds in the zoo can only be regarded as a practitioner. The real bird shooting is shooting those birds in the wild. That kind of shooting is very tasteful and fulfilling. Then how can we shoot birds in the wild? Please accept the following suggestions: if you want to shoot in the wild, first check the places where birds live near you on the Internet and get to know the living habits of these kinds of birds, which is very helpful for shooting them well. After arriving at the destination, choose the best shooting point, set up a tripod, and then make camouflage and concealment to avoid scaring the shooting target. It is recommended to wear plain clothes instead of brightly colored clothes. Hunting birds in the wild requires patience and, of course, luck. When choosing a lens for shooting birds in the wild, it is best to equip it with a lens of more than 300 mm. The longer the focal length, the larger the range you can display.
