Wildlife photos. The topic of photography that has been hugely popular.
Wildlife photography is one of the experiences that can create headaches and give life to you the most. Scoffs because you need to save the image model that is often disliked you. And I did not even walk out your front camera for birds, mammals and animals without backbone. These animals are considered to be a master hunter. And they will do whatever it takes to thwart photographers. When we were in the invasion and destruction of their habitat. How are we going to put it? And they know that we do not eat them?
You just can not accept that wildlife photography is a laborious task than shooting people or landscapes. And often you need to back out without hands, to be able to demonstrate your efforts on it. Yes, but that it would be impossible. And rewarded for their patience in working with a model that does not cooperate with you, it is a powerful image which is usually the moment we do not see each other often.
Planning and research is the first thing you need to get started. Knowing the habits and habitats of the model, it lets you shoot at them. And from henceforth tips page.

Consider the backdrop in your photos.
One of the significant disturbance of the models are packed with details and a small image in the background so whenever possible. You should choose a background color and a clean uniform. It does not matter whether it is brighter than the background. (Like the sky) or darker (indoor shrubs focus) If your bird has a sharp focus. If you held a mallet for Nylon. You can control these environmental properly.
The maximum resolution.
As the sun shines down directly, you can use a higher shutter speed and the ISO low light, but this will cause harsh shadows that obscure the details of delicate feathers. Choosing this model under the shade. Such as under a tree or under the fence or wall. Will help raise the profile of your model. The soft light will reveal the texture and pattern of the feathers are subtle.
Ready for action.
The landing and takeoff area with a limited amount of time that this fast. You can not rely on the auto focus to lock focus in time. So you use the One-Shot AF mode button and the AF-Activation. To focus on the mallet in advance so you can prepare to release any models that appeared in a frame.
Set the exposure in advance.
In addition to pre-set the focus. You should also set the exposure prior to the model, the presence as well. Allows you to set your camera to a tripod. And focus to the mallet. Taken with Manual mode. Mode or set your Aperture (Aperture Priority) in order to be able to control the depth of the image. Then try to see if you need to adjust the exposure compensation or not. (By changing the shutter speed with the Manual).
Depth control.
Although the backdrop to a clean backdrop in our dreams. But the situation is not always so, however, you can always keep eye contact with disturbing backdrop to the depth to the background out of focus. Aperture value you have to use it, depending on the focal length you use. And the distance between the subject and the background. But small is the best aperture to extract the background out of focus. While your bird still sharp. Try using a function to check the depth of the image (Depth of Field preview function) on your camera for precision.

Birds in the garden, most of them are small and shy. So you need a lens focal length of the lens is relatively high, Sigma 120-400 mm f/4.5-5.6 DG OS HSM is a lens that seems to work well.

Focal point to be.
Let's say you want to shoot the birds in flight. (Which is amazing birds provided a lot of it is like that) to maintain a clear focus, it is extremely important. Tracking Auto Focus modes to choose from and the central focal point. Because this will be the most sensitive auto focus your Then, as you shoot. Also serves to focus the camera continuously as you pan the camera according to your model.
Use focus lock.
To help the AF system to lock your position precisely. You use the AF button on the back of the camera. (While the model is the focal point in the middle), this method allows the AF system works without you having to press the shutter button halfway down, which makes the light change as well. And when you focus it. You can release the shutter immediately.
Burst.
You have to shoot flying birds rapid succession several shots to get the best picture, just a single image. Allows you to set the shooting mode to continuous, however we do not recommend that you press the shutter button to dub like a machine gun. The shutter release time frame for a 3-5 should help prevent the buffer is full because lots of pictures. It also does not cause a "hold" as it cleared the data.
Switching to manual mode, set the shutter speed manually.
Depth is not an issue for a bird flying in the distance. Because you tend to focus to infinity in time like this. So instead you use the manual mode to Aperture (Aperture Priority) mode, you can adjust the sensitivity shutter (Shutter Priority), so that you can control the motion in it. The shutter speed to "perfect" it is likely to be high enough to stop the movement of the bird sharp. But leave the ends of the wings are blurred slightly to reflect the actual fly. 1/250-1/500 seconds around the shutter will result in unintended good.
System stabilizer.
In tracking a bird in flight. You also need to hold the camera by hand, so that you can move freely. Unfortunately, doing this will make it vulnerable to vibration. If your camera has stabilization (Image Stabilisation) you should not forget to turn the system to reduce the vibration that occurs. If your lens with this system. You just do not forget to turn VR or IS system commands as well.
