Birds of Prey: Raptors in Flight
Join us for a special workshop with a licensed falconer and photograph her birds of prey in flight, up close!
Key topics for this session:
- Stopping fast action
- Tracking focus and camera focus options to help you
- Animal behavior & anticipating the action
- Composition, light, and creativity
Class size is very limited, we can not overbook this session.
Gear to consider:
- Interchangeable-lens camera - Most all-in-one type cameras aren't quite fast enough!
- Fast telephoto lens - e.g. 70-200mm f/2.8, 100-400mm or equivalent. We'll be pretty close to the birds, so you won't need a really long lens like you'd usually use for birding. You can leave the 600mm with teleconverter at home.
- Fast spare memory cards - we'll be on continuous shooting mode a lot! Plan to take hundreds of photos to get a few good ones.
- Extra batteries
- Monopod if you're worried about the weight of your camera, or to assist with panning.
