    That was not an okay picture of the weasel. It was an excellent photo and here is why; the summer coat of the weasel and more imortantly, its` prey. Well done.

    So funny to me you say the photo was mediocre ish. That first one was incredible. But. I appreciate your high standards, which is why your photography adorns my office walls!!

    To hear what you do to prep settings was a nice thing to hear as I do that every time I leave my vehicle as well. Countless times time is the factor for photo opportunities whether you get one or get one at all. A great shot of the weasel !!

    Hi Steve! Love the weasel. They have been eluded me. Could you demonstrate for me at some point how you unsling your monopod and get low to the ground eye level weasel shot before he runs off. I just can’t picture how you can do that all so fast. I get having the setting ready but physically getting everything into position so fast is remarkable. Did you keep it on the monopod? How do you get eye level? I am curious. Thanks.

    1:26 is that a hidden bird while you talk about seeking for wildlife? ahah

    steve, as always nice vid. Question about the sling pouch on your left shoulder, is it a camera sling or sling-style pack? Thanks.

    I had to chuckle, after watching this video. I was in the mountains for the past 3 day, chasing bears. Came across a grizzly sow and took a gazillion pictures. Get home. Some are soft.....all because I didn't preset my settings. Slow shutter speeds were the culprit !! Why didn't you put the video out.....before I left !! LOL !!!!
    Cheers,

    Curious, what are your thoughts on auto area AF vs 3d tracking?

  • @lorenroot7667
    @lorenroot7667 Před 2 měsíci

    Surprised to hear you say aperture priority given you were chasing wildlife. My assumption is you would want shutter speed control and would therefore be in manual with auto iso. Is that a normal approach for you? Cheers!

    • @SteveMattheis
      @SteveMattheis  Před 2 měsíci +2

      I just use iso to control my shutter, same thing👍

    Hey Steve. Just got my 400 2.8 TC. Wow what a lens eh !!! Have you tried any external TCs on it like the Z2X ?

    • @SteveMattheis
      @SteveMattheis  Před 2 měsíci +1

      Yes it works quite well for me👍
