Mark, we always love to hear from you. I for one will take anything you want to give us. Godspeed
Thank you!
Fully agreed with Longrider, appreciate what you bring us when you bring it to us. Glad you and the misses came back safely.
The short updates are great, an intro before the “story”. I like where you’re going with this.
I am happy to see whatever you want to share mark. Your story telling is incredible but your enthusiasm shines through regardless of the length of video. So I am happy with shorts, or small update videos until the longer videos come out! Whatever you want to do! Just do not take on too much and burn yourself out!
Mark please make the videos that you want to. If someone doesn't like the length, then they don't have to watch.
The shorts are always great and we love hearing any updates!
Thank you for the shorts and the longs and for popping up on the screen now and then to chat and inform. It's nice to see the genius behind all this stunning work. It's also very, very good to see you healthy and handsome and full of enthusiasm!
Thanks
I enjoy everything you produce. The shorts give us something to look forward to.
Hey Mark, it's great to see any updates from you, I appreciate all your videos including the short ones! cheers.
Shorts are a nice change of pace,keep ‘em coming,welcome home to Osprey Central.
Thanks, will do!
Love the shorts. Quick way to see whats up and coming. Thanks.
Fantastic work and productions!! Just got my Z9 a few days ago. Pre-ordered 3mo. ago. Been a Nikon user for 15yrs. From D300, D500, D850, D800, D810, & Z6ll. This Z9 is impressive!! Sk~
Any content you make is well worth it. Appreciate your all your efforts. Hope your time in Canada treated you well!
Had a great time once I found the right jacket lol!
@@MarkSmithphotography Yup! Photographing wildlife in Canada in winter is really challenging on the body, especially when having to keep relatively still to avoid scaring birds...I wear 4 layers, hand warmers inside my gloves and enjoy sitting on the snow/ice by the river edge to photograph the various ducks and more (in Ottawa). Looking forward to your upcoming video's Mark. The "shorts" are informative, and those who don't choose to watch them should't necessitate your abstention from producing them (IMHO). Stay "warm" in your Florida winter :-)
Always love to hear from you!! You are always full of great things. LOVE YOUR videos
Kepp doing what you are doing, I like the shorts to know what you are working on and what we have to look forward too ... Thanks for ALL your efforts!
hey mark i love your work and would love to see updates when videos are coming out
In between your longer more informative/review videos I love the shorts or short videos for updates. Thanks Mark.
I vote absolutely keep the shorts coming. We are all waiting on Z9 videos from people so it’s nice to get the update that it’s coming soon. I’ve watched Jan Wageners and it was great but I’m really waiting to hear from you and Steve Perry who have shot a lot more with Nikon. Anticipation is killing me to get the Nikon guys’ take on it so the shorts and updates help ease the pain!
Big fan of your channel by the way too. I’m just getting in to wildlife photography and most of the channels have been great about teaching theory, camera technique, composition etc; but I like how you show us names of birds and make a good story out of all your trips. Makes yours more fun and interesting to follow.
Additional kudos: You also are great about putting your camera settings in text for almost every picture on the display. That REALLY helps us beginners out a lot more than you pros probably think. I find myself pausing videos on your pictures with those settings and going to my Lightroom to find pictures similar to that and comparing. Really helps me
To associate the way you were set up for those conditions with my own pictures and see what I did right or wrong. Basically comparing my pictures with your pictures with settings displayed helps build the idea in my mind about how to read a scene and know more intuitively what my exposure settings should be for different scenarios without as much trial and error (I.e. looking at back screen and adjusting exposure settings a hundred times until my subject inevitably takes off before I get it dialed). Repetition repetition repetition I feel like is what it takes to learn Aperture, shutter speed, and ISO for wildlife. Outdoor conditions change constantly so we’ve got to really work on the skill of reading a scene and knowing what we will need exposure wise before we take the shot. Especially since our subject is apt to take off and disappear at any given time!
Love the shorts and these types of behind the scenes and updates! We love all your content!
Really appreciate the updates. Gives me something to look forward to.
Great to hear from you. Looking forward and can’t wait see your new content.
Still not convinced by shorts ! I must produce some more to give them a better try ! Awesome work Mark keep it up ! 👍😍
As others have noted, I will watch whatever content you present in any video format. Be well & stay safe. 😉👍🦅🦅👍😉
Updates are great, and your short videos are some of the only ones I've seen on youtube so far that I actually appreciated. Keep up the great work! Looking forward to seeing those snowy owl shots.
Any content is appreciated. I personally enjoy anything you produce and share.
I enjoy watching your videos. I like how you talk about different Camera systems without bashing other systems. I guess that is why you are a Professional, and the others are just CZcamsrs. Keep on pushing Mark!
Love your story telling of the day as one big adventure it draws you in how you describe every moment of what’s happening around you , it’s good to get a heads up on what’s coming as well 👍
Thank You Mark For The Update. I Appreciate What You Do, and That You Share It With Us.
All your videos are to do with achieving the best results in your world of wildlife photography for me all incredible all amazing.put up what you think makes it happen. Thank you.
Totally agree with Longrider! Love hearing from you!
I enjoy all your videos, short or long! It's great to have a behind the scenes peek at your current projects. Wishing you all the best!
Teasers are good. gives me a taste of what's to come and to put a reminder to be on the look out for in the near future. kind of like adding to "my list" in Netflix.
Mark, keep up the great work! I like what you have been putting out. If its a short video to a longer one I have liked them all. Thank you for keeping all of informed.
I always look forward to see your videos. Can’t wait to see what you can do with Z9
Hi Mark,
Personally I am not really into this sort of short film but you need to advertise and keep your audience knowing that you are still there. They will simply go else where otherwise! It is simple fact of life. I come to your channel for your abilities and, even more so, your story telling. I think there is space for both so keep it up please.
I like these short videos it shows what your up to and keeps you connected to your family of followers 👍
Great Mark!.. Looking forward to the first time impressions of the flagship.
Hi Mark and thank you for all information that helps me a lot with my D500 and D850. My main reason to change to Z9 is if I can get a faster focusing.
I have understand that my 500PF works well with the Z9 but don't focus faster. I will love to hear what you think about the Z9 with the new 400mm f2.8. The price for that lens is 17500 US in Sweden so it would be great to know if there is any difference.....
Great to see again more work from you! As always great stuff and just share what comes from your heart;-)
Cannot wait long...Greetings from Darjeeling...
I was about to switch from Nikon to Sony early last year. But, rumors of the z9 were coming out so I decided to wait and see if it's as good as rumors said it was. Well, I picked up my z9 yesterday and have yet to put if down. I'm really enjoying it so far.
Hi Mark, "long time listener first time caller" :). I appreciate anything you're willing to share but of course always waiting for the longer videos. I was a Nikon shooter for at least three decades but unfortunately had to buy into Sony mirrorless system for obvious reasons. I still have a lot of quality F-mount glass, which I would love to use again. I always loved Nikon's colors and ergonomics. I hope you will compare your experience with z9 to Sony cameras. Especially to Sony 7RIV. Thank you for your awesome CZcams content.
I like the video and I am excited to hear about Z9! I appreciate it and thank you!
I have recently gotten back into film and now have several Nikon film cameras and some really wonderful F mount glass. I have also picked up a Z7 with the FTZ adapter and am really amazed at how well these old manual focus lenses work with the Z7 when using the focus peaking function. I also love just about any video you will put out there Mark. So short or long I will watch them all.
Its all good Mark. Do what you want and I, for one, will be here.
I love ALL your content Mark! Looking forward to the next video!
Love the stories, love the shorts and value your gear opinion. Keep it up and thank you!
Great, that you are doing a Z9 video, so many of us were so entrenched in Nikon and not able to make a switch to another brand, so this will be so helpful.
Hi Mark, Love your Videos, Enjoying Your Presentation. Very Helpful And Informative. Keep Them Coming. Many Thanks For All Your Great Work. 🇬🇧
Mark, this is a good content addition. Keep at it! I also like the YT shorts. Thanks!
I like the short videos
Oh great! Thanks for the input!
I would anticipate absolutely awesome content
Short or long, I look forward to whatever videos you share!
I appreciate these short videos because they are previews to coming attractions. Take what time you need to present your excellent videos.
Anytime you want to share anything I am all for it. Definitely want to;hear about the Z-9
Hi Mark great up date video! I don't like the shorts that much. But they are ok! I can't wait to see your reviews of the Z9 and A1!!! I'm a Sony shooter so I love the A1!!! I envy you for having both those awesome cameras, and having great glass for both!👍👍👍
Any time you post it's a good day. Previews are appreciated if they don't complicate your life.
I appreciate your short clips catching us up with anything you are doing!
Keep doing what your doing Mark…. Huge fan, love your content.
I love your shorts!!!! More shorts! More regular videos as well! And I am totally in favor of Mark obtaining Total World Domination! Or at least Florida. hahaha LOL! Seriously, love your work.
Lol thanks
Excellent video: Short and crisp: Great if you could do a recommended settings PDF for the Z9. Thanks.
My congrats with great studio update!
Enjoy watching your videos....short or long!! Looking forward to the Z9 review.👍
Long or short I'm IN! Even a pause for you to relax is also OK.
Great Mark, I trust everybody is anxious to see your videos and comments about Z9 . I am checking every day if you post new videos 😁😁😁
I love your channel so much! Waiting for cool videos. shorts are ok!
No Mark don’t stop, anything you tell us in your shorts is welcome as far as I am concerned. Cant wait for more content on the Z9 from you.
Making a good quality video takes time... We are with you.. 👍
Mark, appreciate the information you share it’s always quality content. I am not a fan of the shorts, but I look at your shorts as a way to say hey y’all this is what I’m up to, almost like a short text to let us know your alive. Still a Nikon shooter here (D500), can’t yet afford the A1 or Z9, but maybe my wife will give me a budget for one next year or two. If you want to ditch one of your older mirrorless I would happily take the donation 😁.
I don’t mind the shorts at all and I definitely don’t mind videos like this. Your content is always great.
Agree with Longrider, just do your stuff man, long or short videos, photos, etc! Always very interesting! Even though I am a Canon guy 😉
You are so talented and very lucky to be able to get so close with those magnifecent Birds !!!!
Personally not a fan of shorts but they don't offend me, I just tend not to watch them. The updates are nice, we always like hearing from you Mark. I don't see any reason not to do shorts but your long form videos are where I find the most enjoyment and value.
Noted and thanks
I love your short as well as story oriented videos. However, I would like to see a video on your post-processing workflow of images.
I just got my Sony 600mm f4 GM to pair with my A1. Yay!!!
I enjoy all your videos. I am a fan of diversity and think a mix of the short as well as the more in-depth videos is desirable.
Love your content Mark and the way you present it, so for me personally it wont matter if the video is long or short.
Love the short videos. Keep them coming!
Hey Mark - always great to hear from you! Hope your fiancé (Congrats!) will join you later this year for Bald Eagles out here in Washington! I hope to have my Z9 and 400 2.8 by then. All the best!
Everything you put is out, is a Bonus!
It’s all great, keep it coming, any length video is great!
Hi again Mark! Please keep it business as usual. The little snippets are a great tease to the wonderful content we all look forward to 🦅
I love the shorts too! Keep posting!
Mark I think the short vids are great especially if your traveling and trying out new gear . Personally I’m grateful you took a minute or two to keep us posted and keep us in the loop . Can’t wait to see your thoughts on z9 after you get little more time with it , although my mind is stuck on the Sony A1 with the 600 lens , every time I see your pics with that rig I just wanna yell out BINGO !!
Keep smiling
Scott , Kansas City
I like all the content, including BTS updates and shorts.
Thank you!
So stoked to see more videos!!! Even if they are shot with Nikon..hehe 😄
The more content you have time to make, the better - as far as I'm concerned.
We would watch plunging a sink. Keep it coming.
Lol
Hey mark, your photos are absolute incredible, your voice is very pleasant to listen to, and the way you keep me interested, you should do something like davin attenbrough..;)
Hi Mark love your content , but how about maybe showing your photo editing workflow in the future its always interesting to watch . thanks
Keep doing you! We love it!
I like your owl with snow shorts too
Can’t wait. Long videos or short videos work for me.
I like the mix of short and long videos.
Mark, if you get a chance - please comment on your Z9 review if you've found a way to not dedicate three programable buttons to three AF modes. Example: Small Eastern Blue bird perched between beautiful berried branches ready to strike the ground to find food: Fn1- single point to lock on focus, AF-On (3D with animal eye detect to track it to the ground). Or your favorite Osprey in the sky using say Fn2 (wide area - S/L) to quickly lock on, and then 3D on AF-On to track (or leave it on wide). Also elaborate on how Sony avoids this issue (if they do) and if you use banks at all. Thanks.
I like your the short videos. I don't really care which equipment you use. As a Nikon shooter I look forward to your comments on the Z9 and hope you will do a settings video like you have done with your other Nikon and Sony equipment (I go back to the D500 setup). I always am entertained by your work and there are lessons to be learned regardless of which camera you happen to be using. Stay healthy, and don't let my family blame you for bringing back the cold from Canada (beachside, east coast Florida).
Lol
Don’t care long or shorts; really enjoy all your videos
Nice video Mark! Thanks for sharing with us!💖👍😎JP
The algorithm can blow goats. I like your long form work. And I like updates like this. And the "shorts" are ok. You do you mate.
Mark you are a Rock Start all things change just a new phase in your channel.
Thanks. That's very nice of you to say.
@@MarkSmithphotography as soon as I get back to the states will get your Osprey book. Would you sing it for me thanks in advance
I like your setup
Mark
It is your channel, your choice what you do. You can never satisfy everyone so use your own judgement. Whatever you post I am happy either way. Remember you own this channel so you decide on content, etc.
See you out there!
Generally I really enjoy your videos, they are informative and helpful. Ironically this video reminds me of how Nikon rolls out their new cameras - teaser informercials with no content.
I like videos of 8 to 12 minuttes. They are easy to find time to watch and you rarely reach the time when you get fed up with the presenter going nowhere ;-) I would like to see more stuff from Colorado as Well :-)
Enjoy all of your content. Not picky!!!
