How about Nikon D750 shooting birds with 200-500 lens?

Although I don't shoot birds very much, I know a little about the routine of shooting birds. I also took the following pictures of birds, but I don't like taking pictures of birds, and my level is limited. I can only give some reference to prove that it is not a keyboard party. )

There are several ways to shoot birds:

1, wait for him

Set up a camera by the pond, and a bunch of people are waiting for the remote-controlled birds. This is how many "old wizards" proudly "king fishing rod" and "king fishing" to kill time.

Some people still use camouflage nets and other equipment to keep watch like snipers. This technique is often used for woodbirds and waterfowl.

2. Play "Flying Edition" with a camera.

This kind of shooting requires holding a camera and shooting while chasing birds, which is much more difficult. Most photographers can only shoot birds such as egrets and seagulls, while the "show-off school" will choose birds such as swallows to challenge.

There's so much nonsense in front, so let's cut to the chase: How about D750 with 200-500 birds?

1. Waiting for rabbit-like shooting, pursuing the high-speed continuous shooting of the camera. Because the shooting focus is set manually, the speed of continuous shooting is higher, and the possibility of capturing wonderful moments is greatly improved. The maximum continuous shooting speed of D750 is 6.5fps, which is lower than the average level in current cameras.

2. Camouflage shooting, especially for woodbirds, sometimes the light is very dark, which requires high sensitivity performance of the camera. In this respect, the D750' s high sensitivity is a first-class level. However, the lens aperture of 200-500 is very small, and the combination is still below the middle.

3. Holding a camera to shoot the flying version is a test of the focusing performance of the camera. The focusing module of D750 is still medium or small in this respect.

So my evaluation is that the D750 of 200-500 can only be regarded as a bird-shooting combination at the lower and middle level. If you are a newcomer who knows nothing, you can play this combination.

But if you are a photographer with experience in bird shooting, I suggest you optimize your bird shooting mode. For example, those who like to shoot flying version will enter D500, those who like to shoot waterfowl will enter 600mm fixed focus or sigma's 150-600. And for those who play pole dancing in Xiaocui, it is better to buy a 70-200 one.

Finally, there is a knife:

Many novices always think that the longer the focal length of a bird, the better, which is wrong.

The longer the focal length of the lens, the worse the portability, which is greatly affected by the air quality. Playing birds, camouflage is always more important than focal length!

Can D750 shoot birds with a lens of 200 to 500?

Nikon D750 is a relatively cheap Quan Huafu SLR at this stage. Fast focusing speed, high sensitivity and good performance can be used to shoot birds.

This lens is Nikon's characteristic long zoom lens with a constant aperture of 5.6, which is cheaper than the large fixed focus. It is a cost-effective lens, and it is a good choice to shoot lotus flowers, the moon and birds.

This lens has high sharpness in the center, good portability and anti-shake. It is very practical when shooting birds and other subjects, with good focusing speed and good imaging quality. It is a good equipment for ordinary lovers.

What the author didn't mention can be supplemented by the post.

I am a "sword dance image", a photographer, welcome to pay attention, and let's communicate together.

There are several factors to consider when shooting birds:

1, focal length. Because of the need for long-distance shooting, the focal length should be long enough. Generally speaking, it takes about 400mm focal length to shoot birds with a full-frame camera. It's not that you can't shoot birds under 400mm, but it's more difficult to shoot. For example, 200mm and 300mm can only shoot some big birds or birds at close range, and it is not easy to shoot birds and birds. Even if you edit them later, you need a focal length of more than 400 mm.

2. Focus speed. Shooting birds, especially dynamic birds, must keep up with the focus speed. In addition to the fuselage factor, the focusing speed of the lens is also an important aspect.

3. Lens quality. Lens is an important aspect that affects imaging. If the lens and design are low-order, it is difficult to feed the resolution of the camera cmos, and the photos taken will be poor and not very useful. For example, some low-order 70-300 lenses have such problems.

4. aperture. The significance of large aperture is not only blur effect, but also the amount of light entering is very important when shooting ecological themes. With enough aperture, iso sensitivity can be reduced and shutter speed can be increased.

Based on the above factors, let's take a look at Nikon's 200-500 lens. This lens can basically meet the needs of bird shooting in focal length, and the price is quite high compared with other lenses with similar focal length, so it will attract the attention of many photographers. However, as we mentioned above, there are several conditions that need to be met to take a bird shot. If the price is compromised, the aperture coefficient can be moderately relaxed, because the prices of large aperture and super telephoto are indeed high, but the focusing coefficient cannot be compromised. Without fast and accurate focusing ability, the success rate of bird shooting will be greatly reduced. This is the biggest problem of this 200-500. Its focusing speed is really flattering. Personally, I think this lens is designed for shooting long-distance scenery and static telephoto themes. Even if the high-end fuselage is used, the focusing speed is slow, so I don't think it can meet the needs of bird shooting and it is not recommended. You can consider Nicol 80-400mm, which is more expensive, but it is more suitable for shooting birds.

But overall, whether it's scenery or bird shooting, this lens is basically enough. Don't worry, it's really not suitable for rangefinder, and the price of this lens is very suitable for the public. It is a good bird-shooting tool.

Well, I hope my answer can help you. If you like my answer, remember to like the comments. If you say something wrong, please give me some advice. Thank you-

First of all, the performance of Nikon D750 is very good. I happen to have this SLR camera with 24.5 million pixels, which fully meets the needs of bird shooting. In addition, it has 565,438+0 autofocus points, which can also focus quickly when shooting birds, and it also has a continuous shooting speed of 7 frames per second, so you won't miss any wonderful room.

This picture is my Nikon D750, which is about 6800 now. It is the most cost-effective Quan Huafu SLR camera, which can meet the needs of most people.

Secondly, Nikon 200-500mmf5.6VR lens, with fixed aperture of 5.6 and fixed exposure in full focal length, is also an anti-shake lens, which can fully meet the requirements of shutter speed when shooting birds:

The telephoto end of this lens is 500mm, which is relatively long. When used with D750, if the focal length is not long enough, D750 can also be set to APS-C format, so that the long focal length becomes the equivalent focal length of 750mm (this is the benefit of Nikon users, and other brands do not have this function). If you still feel that the focal length is not long enough, you can add a double range extender TC-20E:

This is the third generation TC-20E multiplier, which can double the focal length of the lens. If Nikon D750+200-500mmf5.6 lens +TC20E multiplier and D750 is set to APS-C, the equivalent focal length of telephoto end will reach an astonishing 1500mm, which is more than enough to shoot the moon.

To sum up, Nikon D750 with Nikon 200-500mmf5.6VR lens is very suitable for bird shooting.

Wukong, let's stop shooting birds. All right, shoot birds! Of course, the longer the focal length of the lens, the better. A 200-500mm lens will do.

This Nikon 200-500mf/5.6Eed VR lens can be said to be used by ordinary Nikon users to shoot birds. The price is close to the people, and the price of five or six thousand yuan is not heavy (price and weight). The price is similar to Longteng and Shima's 150-600, and the price is slightly lower, which can also be used as an option. If you have higher requirements for bird hunting, you might as well take a look at Longteng 150-600G2 and Sigma 150-600sports, both of which cost more than 10,000 yuan.
