Hi Tin, are you working on new course ?
Valuable information with no filler. You just get to the point and you're very clear about what works and why. I got a lot out of this and I've been shooting for forty years. This is terrific. I want to watch your other videos.
Wow. I have never seen such incredibly beautiful wildlife photos. They really speak to me. They're so much more than documentary records. Thank you. You are a true artist.
Nice tips. Many thanks for these. The short video of the bear mother walking towards the camera and the bear child just appearing a bit later unexpected out of nowhere is genious. I love it. 👍❤️
Good stuff! Thanks again Tin Man!
Some of the best advice i've heard to date....thank you for taking the time.

Possibly the best wildlife tutorial video have seen. Of course I subscribed. Thank you. BTW, I tested your advice to sharpen the heck out of an image at full size then scale down for social media. great advice.
Fantastic tips and well presented. Thank you sir!
Wow! Your video blew me away, -am amateur photographer and thank you so much for making such a easy to understand video as I found most videos too technical to understand and love your photos. Looking forward to more videos!
Thank you! Very informative - and what fantastic images.💖
Your prescriptions match my experience. This is a breath of fresh air! I've grown tired of those who try to shame photographers who give priority to shooting wise open.
Very informative, thank you. Incredible visuals.
Very well explained with good tip 👍
One of the best at describing the process of creating a story with a photo. The reference to the potential (or loss of) for a sale is brilliant. By mentioning other respected photographers, you bring deeper connections to the craft. You clearly show that photography is a thinking man’s game. Bravo!
That's so very kind of you. Thank you! It's so much fun, so much thinking for this artistic endeavor indeed.
So glad I found your channel...Great tips! Thank you!

Awesome I saw your nice fox shots
great. thanks for the tips. really helpful.
Thanks for your kind words!
Excellent advice! Thank you!
Great video, the tips shared are so useful.
Good information and well illustrated. The comment about not underexposing is a good one. I did a series of group photographs with bracketing set -1 EV, 0.0 EV, +1.0 EV. The 0.0 were the best but the next best were the +1.0 EV which still provided a good deal of color fidelity. With -1.0 EV and adjusting the Raw file in Photoshop there were color shifts as a result of too little data.
Lots of great info have to watch this again!
Great to hear that. I am working on a new video with more info soon. Stay tuned.
Thank you for the video!
Your tips were very helpful and 2 tips were knew for me. High mega-pixel related resize and prepare a background. I am using background well but preparing makes more sense.
Nice , thanks for the tips. much appreciated
So glad to hear that! Let me know if you have any questions.
Great shared photography tips. Big LIKE!!! Thanks for sharing.
Excellent tips, although many of them are expensive. I really like the one about oversharpening before cropping. I gotta try that one!
Anyone can talk about photography and gear. Almost no one can talk about the things the higher experts on the field say and do. This is why I subscribed, to get access to that privilege knowledge. I follow ALL the best photography youtubers and you are THE ONLY ONE that has ever mentioned tips and things that the pros do. That's prime knowledge right there. Definitely a great value for anyone.
These are amazing tips from someone who knows.
This is very helpful
Thx a ton for your experience sharing
Great advice- thank you.!

Thank you so much. Some of the tips are really worth being considered the next time I'm out shooting BIF.
I love BIF. I may do a more in depth video on BIF later.
Thank you, Tin Man for sharing so much excellent information.
Hope all is well so good to hear from you.

Cold hard facts
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge 🙏 Greetings from México 🇲🇽👋
Good tips
Fantastic pointers! I've dipped my toe into wildlife but I mostly photograph dogs. Surprisingly, anything slower than 1/1250 will produce motion blur with my speed demons. 🤣 Thank you so much for the video! I can't wait to put some of these tips into practice!
Photographing dogs is a completely different ball game and you need even higher shutter speed than wildlife. I’ve tried that lol.
I shoot my dogs from time to time. I don't use very short shutter speeds because the images look frozen. You want to show a motion in the picture. Just like when you shoot cars, you need to follow the subject and let background show motion blur.
@USGrant-xq4us I'm trying to shoot my dog too. Even when the pics aren't great, it's still very enjoyable. 😄
Thanks for the clip, I'm a beginner, I haven't photographed wildlife but I really like it. For this, which camera do you recommend, Canon R10 or Sony a7R (mk2)? And what lens do you recommend for the one you choose (400mm but I would like it to be a bit cheaper). Thank you
Thank you for the video. I’m just trying out wildlife photography, so for now I’m just using my iPhone and a telephoto lens until I know I want to get more serious. I’ve been doing it for a couple weeks and my photos have gotten better, but sharpness is still a challenge. I know there’s a limit to what my phone can do, but I hope your tips will help with my very basic setup.
Phone and telephoto lens is a good start and it’s so lightweight you can bring everywhere. It’s always a good idea to rent a big camera for a weekend to give it a try and compare before you make a decision.
@@TinManLee Thank you. I’ll try renting a camera one day.
excellent
Great video!! thanks for all these precious tips! I have a question not related to the tecnical part of photography but to the human part, how do you prevent dangerous situations when you are very close to dangerous animals? and how do you know when you are too close to them and how do you act in those situations?
Very good question and a very important topic. Indeed a lot of beginning photographers didn't know the danger when they get close. I've had opportunities to talk to many wildlife guides, and one thing is to observe the facial expression and body posture of the animal ALL the time. If they are agitated, most of the time they show it. The same species can behave completely different at places where the habitat is clear (without lots of tall grass and trees), vs places when they are hunted, to places they see a lot of tourists everyday. Also the abundance of food source makes a difference. I recently had an interview with a professional bear guide. Maybe you can check that out first and let me know if you have any more questions. kzhead.info/sun/jNaudLFtjYeuf6M/bejne.html
@@TinManLee thank you very much for your fast answer! I would love to know more about this because I think it's one of the things that prevents me to enjoy wild life photografy in the first place, if I feel unsafe I won't go out to take pictures, but I would love to win my fears if they are unjustified! Your tips already proved me that you can be safe while being close to wild animals if you follow certain rules, but I'm still quite worried, so if you will do a video specifically focused on "good practices" on how to behave with wild animals I'll be the first whatching it! Thanks again for all your amazing videos!
Incredible collections of tips. Thank you Tin Man Lee
My pleasure! Thank you for your support!
Thank you Tin Man.
Glad to hear that!
Thank you for your insights. You did a great job explaining real world issues regarding taking the best photos utilizing key techniques. I'm a new photographer, and you have given me a great base to work from.
Thank you for your kind words, Peter! Very glad to hear that. Stay tuned as I plan to post more regularly :)
I look forward to your next videos. My Best, Peter
