Hi Nigel, Just a couple of pointers, if the deer are looking at you freeze and when they look away move slowly so as not to get their attention , the other thing is your face and eyes are like a big warning flag, I have a Realtree mesh headset but I put it on backwards as it has big eyeholes and you can easily see through the mesh but it disguises your white face, I have stood next to Badgers by using that technique and have had Roe Deer sniffing my feet whilst sitting at the base of a tree completely camouflaged .

The Tamron is notably crap in low light situations (I have one, I know!) and not well weather sealed. When you go in places where light and weather are crap, and you're a pro, you NEED these big glasses to achieve great shots. but for most people, a 150-600 will suffice more than enough. Just check Morten's video where he's shooting deers in Scotland under torrential rain using the Tamron. Good lesson for everybody. :)

I'm eager to see more. I've learned much about light and shadow, and how they can be used to control composition and the viewer's eye, from looking at street photography. Depth of field and subject isolation and bokeh from portrait photography. Telephoto compression and wide angle distortion from architecture photography. It's all useful knowledge, and photography is such an enjoyable thing to practice.

Morten does some impressive photos where the animal does not necessarily have to fill the frame, he is just so good at combining it with its surroundings and natural behavior.

You don't need a long focal length for great wildlife images. There is a misconception that you need a super telephoto of 500mm for full frame equivalent for amazing wildlife images. Due to this misconception, most wildlife photos, though beautiful and stunning, look the same because of the severe compression. This is why some wildlife photographer masters are masters because they stick out. Look at David Yarrow who uses wide angle lenses and goes right up to the animals whether personally or remote fires. Nick Brandt, the God of wildlife photography, who uses a custom 105mm f2.4 on his Pentax 67 to get unique DoF normal perspective close up photos that is impossible to replicate or copy on any digital camera and software

Hi Nigel, Happy New Year. I “accidental” came across your You Tube channel, but what a luck, and then I saw this fantastic video, loaded with really valuable information, especially the input from Morten pointing out ( stressing I would say ) why big, heavy (expensive) equipment is not so important. It´s a matter of being out there and getting to know your equipment, be it small and less expensive. My grandson, age 14, and I go out “shooting” wildlife, and many of the photographers we met out in the field carry around these huge long 500 or 600 mm f4 lenses, so no wonder he is “big eyes” on such a lens. I have told him that less can do it, and it´s a question about the person behind the camera which he understands, and now he can hear it from the master himself, Morten Hilmer, whom he really admires. So, many thanks for great video, and remember how important it is with that nice cup of coffee. Cheers, Torben

In wildlife photography this might be even more important than in landscape photography as you only have a split second to change camera settings. I really need to work on that in order to make the most out of these rare moments. Many thanks for sharing your insights.

I've been shooting full manual for landscapes for a few years. I rec'd the Z9 a couple days ago, set up a few banks using auto modes. I have to say that I'm changing up my photography now by using more automated functions. I didn't feel comfortable doing this previously (i.e., giving up more control to the camera). Now, though, it makes total sense to do it because the Z9 nails focus so well. Really hoping to expand my photography to include wildlife now, which was not even a consideration before...

Deer can see and hear very well but their sense of smell is their best attribute. You have to move through the woods into the wind to get the shot. They most likely smelled you from a far. If you just get behind a bush, even with no camo on, the bush will break up your body figure and you'll be fine. Don't carry food with you either as they will smell it. Good luck with your future animal pictures. These are tips from a deer hunter.

I am sure that many people watch this video for enjoyment alone, but with the cost of a 600 mm f4 at over £10k and the 500 f5.6 pd at £3.5k many may feel that this type of photography is out of reach. If you look at the work of David Yarrow you will see that there is another way of getting high quality images of wildlife. By using extensive analysis of his subject's behaviour to predict its movements combined with a remote shutter release he obtains stunning images of wildlife using short focal length lenses. Modern mirror less cameras having wifi capability and apps that allow remote control using a smart phone make this approach accessible at relatively low cost. It allows you to capture high quality images of wildlife from the comfort of your house or hide without the need for a long telephoto. I can certainly match the quality I get from my Sigma 150-600 Con on an apsc Nikon by using a low cost Nikon Nikon 50mm f1.8 on an MFT adapter and taking this approach
