Nice wildlife, great adventure, cool photos! 😀👍

I am going to buy 100 400mm f5.6 to 8 lens can I proceed what's your opinion about this lens and I have canon r10 brooo

this is a relay nice video 👍

WOW so many great shots in this guys, great job - nailing those sharp woodpecker shots at 1/50 on the long end of that lens hand held in amazing! Here in IL Cardinals are very common, and yet I still enjoy getting shots of them - congrats. The shot at 17:47 unbelievable, the framing of the white flowers sticking up on each side of the bird - great eye!

I enjoyed your video very much. Since I can't hike very far anymore, it's enjoyable to watch wildlife through others experiences. Thank you. Wish we had some drive through parks in Kentucky, most require a great deal of climbing and hiking. You're doing better and better on each video, great job.

great photos. it would be nice if you could give some tips on what configuration you used for each photo😊 so that we can learn a bit from your experience

Awsome

Amazing shots mister, inspiration to others for sure

Ryan, I really enjoyed this video. Several of the shots reminded me of impressionist paintings! Great music, too.

This video was awesome - great music, intro, and shots - makes me miss living in central florida, loved boating and kayaking near wekiwa springs. I had not considered trying multi exposure until seeing this and have not had near as good of luck with ICM - so many of these for sure are printable wall hangers! Excited to give multi exposure and more ICM a shot soon!!

What an amazing place you have you have there... The plan with the boat crossing the river with the waves was cool. And a lot of very cool footage with the beautiful clouds in the blue sky. Love the music too. Good bass with my galaxy pro2. Very enjoyable, well done! 👍😀

IS appears to help a little, so for me patience and a tripod are the best way to go, with the rare occasion of get it and hope for the best!

Great video, you are really getting in close with the insect world hehehe that 90mm is a good choice, it allows you to get in close without being physically close which scares the insects.

You always have good music!

I've an R10, which you've featured quite a lot, and I've seen many awesome fotos taken with an R10. For mine, I have an incredible (and not expensive) Tokina ATX-i f2.8 100 mm FF macro lens. I also have older EF lenses, such as a nifty 50, a 70-200 and a 400, and all of my lenses are mounted to the R10 via a Canon EF to EOS R adapter. Love the camera, the Tokina lens - and I foresee endless opportunities for them. BTW - Minimum focus distance on the Tokina is 4.5", and that'll give one some working room so as not to scare the insect.

What a beautiful, magnificent forest setting! Spanish moss and climbing leaves everywhere. As Dorothy said "We're not in Kansas anymore". How fortunate you are! Enjoyed the BTW - including your great voice.

Seems like they're all a little better with IS on. Emphasis on a little.

Giant mosquito I call em Icknumin. Not sure of the spelling

Action Macro! Yes, both Image Stabilization and AI Servo are helpful, at all distances, all the way down to macro. I now use AI Servo, virtually always, unless I am locked-down onto a tripod. It took me a while to sort this out, because, at the time I started macro photography, in 2010, the mantra had long been that Image Stabilizsation was “useless” at close range. My first step was when I bought a Canon EF 100mm f/2.8L Macro IS, in late 2010, to use on my 40D, after have been using a non-stabilized Tokina 100mm macro lens. The macro task, at the time, was forensic/evidentiary/crime scene photography, while on duty, and flowers and general photography during personal time. This developed into an interest in the insects and wee beasties living on and around the flowering plants. I added a Canon 7D, at the end of 2010, but, in spite of it being an upgrade in AF capability, I still clung to the old formula for macro-distance photography, for quite q while. Somewhere along the way, it hit me in the head, that I should be using AI Servo, at close range, even at near-macro and macro focusing distance, to compensate for my movements, as well as subjects’ movements, whether those subjects were flowers swaying in the breeze, crawling insects, or, a traumatized, living, breathing assault victim. I do remember reading Ming Thein writing that he used AF-C, when doing product photography with Nijkon cameras, but do not recall whether that was what prompted me to try AI Servo at macro distance, with Canon DSLRs, or was an affirmation that I was already on the right track. (Nikon AF-C = “Auto-Focus, Continuous,” and is equivlent to Canon’s AI Servo.) The next big tech step happened when I upgraded from the 7D to the 7D Mark II, in 2014. I do not recall whether I had started using AI Servo at macro distance, by that time, but, the much-improved AF capability was certainly helpful. When I later added 5Ds R and then 5D Mark IV cameras, AF kept getting better. (I have not yet added any R cameras or RF lenses. No rush.)

Not sure if IS is noticeable much on macro and close up photography. It is very noticeable using telephoto lens, which is mainly what IS is generally designed to reduce shake. Nothing is perfect, but especially for us old guys, it really helps since we have a hard time holding the camera steady in handheld situations.

Thanks for this great video. I'm also having the same problems with camera shake. Is there anything I could do to reduce camera shake ? TIA

Awesome video! Also very surprising results especially with the latter tests, I was not sure if IS would do anything in the final one! BTW - Would be curious to see a comparison sometime and your thoughts on the switch to Canon regarding Macro and birding - what you think between the 2 systems! I am constantly on the fence considering a complimentary system and wonder what differences I might expect. Most of what I see online are pretty stuck in one camp or the other, you have good experience putting both systems to the test so really curious what you would recommend.

Well done! That's the kind of video with potential, because it gives answers. I had no idea about such differences , and I was very curious to watch until the end. This is the way! 😀👍

So many lovely clips and photos! Greetings from a Swedish youtuber! 🇸🇪

Get the 60mm f2.8 macro for your em1 mark ii if you haven't got one , its an excellent lens .

The only thing keeping me away from macro photography these days are ticks. One bite and your life will be ruined. How do you deal with them?

It was nice to see another real person using one of those F11 lenses. And the story with the kite was entertaining. What a great bird! I have the same problems of focusing with the R7 in Video. It is amazing that the camera would not focus on a big black shape in the middle of the frame. 😆 The good news for me is that I just checked my video settings, and I was actually in human detection in my 3 custom buttons, and human detection in manual mode as well....... since more than 12 months now. 🤣

I like the snake, great job on the white spider too. Looking forward to see some videos handheld with IS. 😀👍

Another great one that has be inspired to try something new - went out with the macro, no flash with continuous shutter trying to get shots of insects - so much fun! Now I have about 1100 images to go through LOL - hope I walk away with 1 or 2 LOL - Love that spider shot! What was it you wanted to shoot that you had not seen before but ran out of battery?

Love this!!

Well done. A really inspiring video, thank you. Is Pro Capture the way to get some good "bee in flight" shots?

Beautiful bird photography! New subscriber here ✨

Well that's what I have needed in my macro photography, two little helpers. You have some beautiful kids. And macro photography is a great way to introduce them to nature. Finally, I totally agree with you on the unnecessary overuse of flash macro shooting. There are many other methods to use natural lighting, such as reflectors, diffusers etc. Using a flash might gain you a little on DOF, but the harsh contrast is the downside. Besides photography is subjective, do it your way.

What a great place to bring your kids to! Next step is buying two R50 and two 7 artisans 60mm mark 2. 😁 You have some nice jumping spiders over there. 👍

Wow forget all the gear, I need some helpers like you got there to help find subjects - great job and team work :) - These are great thoughts BTW - My favirois shots from last year was early morning no flash highish f stop :) Also funny how many comments tell me when I do use flash to not do it the way I am and get a AK diffuser - I recently attended a seminar with a award winning macro photographer that doesnt use flash at all and has been published in magazines - so I take a lot of the comments with a grain of salt - lots of ways to do things. Also what is the goal, max depth of field clinical photos or more artistic images - something I have been thinking about recently formulating for a video soon - you really captured by thoguhts here really well though!

Nice video. In India we cannot use RF600 with F11 hence i am using RF 100-500mm for Wildlife & Birding

I found an old bridge-camera for really good price. It has 40x zoom and 1cm minimum focus distance in Macro mode. Can I use it for Macro Photography? Model: Fujifilm Finepix S8200

Very nice job you do a lot with a modest set up, impressive. Best hands on explanation of the real world use of the Raynox. Thanks.

Try a point of reference close to the bird. At least that works for me. Q: when hand held that lens, do you feel the lens kind of wobble away from the point of focus at random moment? Thank You for the video much appreciated!

In photo mode menu you also have video settings. Does that not change video settings when pressing the"quick" rec button?

Glad the lens survived - stay hydrated out in that heat - fun video as always :) I have been on the fence about upgrading the m4/3 75-300 to the fixed 300 pro lens, but have not (yet) because of the issue you describe finding the bird er and the cost - I wonder if practice will make it easier. I have seen some bird photographers with fixed lens' use dot sights, so that might be an option.

Amazing & so wonderful video. Thanks for sharing & big like

How many extension tube you were using (how many mm) in total ? TIA.

👍

Cool video, Man! Thanks! I need to get out a video with my new camera. I acquired a Canon 5D iv used along with a Tamron 24-70 f/2.8 G2. I am really pleased with them. Have a great weekend!

My husband and I really enjoy your videos. You got some great photo and video of the hawk, and it was really fun to be there with you and enjoying your excitement.

Nice video, well done! 😀 Personally I would have gone for the RF800 and skip the 200-800. I am thinking, the RF100-400 with the RF800 is a good combo that allows you to shoot from very very close, up to 400mm, and even crop a bit if needed, then switch to the 800 when the subject is too far. But that's just me... Anyone has his choices and reasons. ✌

Great results there!

Just wow, so great - looks like you are really enjoying the new set up - have fun out there!
