Show Notes

Wildlife photography is my jam!  It's one of the most exciting kinds of photography out there. Just being amongst the world's greatest animals is thrilling...capturing them in the camera for a lifetime of memories is even better.

As we all strive toward better photos, understanding your camera settings for each type of photography is becoming more and more important. I've distilled this down into the three most important settings (in my opinion) as they pertain to wildlife photography.

In this episode I go into detail on the proper focus settings, drive mode (aka frame rate) and the aperture/shutter speed balance for superb wildlife photography.  Sit back and let's adventure together into the world of wildlife photography!
