      Thank you so much Jay for watching. Good to know we both have the D850 and D750. Certainly a great combo. I love the fact the D750 has the "commander mode" for off camera flashes. I use it a lot in real estate and food photography to fire off my 2 x SB-700 flashes, works a treat. Have an awesome Sunday 👍🙏📸

    • @JCImagesBehindtheShot

      Adrian Alford Photography We must be photography soulmates. I use my D7 50 mostly because of the commander mode as well. I’ve done some real estate photography recently and just this week did some food photographer for my daughter. I also have an SB 700 flash. I will be building a proper studio in my next house and I will get strobes but for now the speed light has worked well

    Nice video Adrian especially for novice Nikon users. I'm not a Nikon user but am glad I stopped on until the end as I may be looking at the Tamron 150-600 for my current project so the more information the better. Incidentally I shot Nikon for a while a number of years ago but found the menu system quite difficult to navigate, however, from your video it certainly looks like they have put some work in on this area. Thanks again!👍

      @RobOnRefresh 4 роки тому +1

      @@adrianalfordphotography - I suspect you are probably right that at least one of the second generation Z cameras will try to compete with the A7R4. I'm personally hoping that it will have the vertical grip capabilities and two card slots (both CFExpress?). If so, I'll probably be trading in my D850 on one of those ;)

I guess just keep your eye out for special sale prices on those lenses and pounce.

    Hello, Adrian I'm learning a lot from your videos😁I recently bought a d850 following the d750 through a second-hand transaction😅
    So first, I changed the setting of the camera the way you told me By the way, I usually want to take pictures of the players at the football stadium, but I have a question
    Why did you designate the af-on button function as a group focus method in the d850 setting and set the single focus function in the preview button🤔And is it not good to raise the maximum of ISO sensitivity too much? I wonder if there is a need to designate it as 20,000 or more
    I would appreciate it if you could let me know if there is a difference between the setting of the video that is helpful for shooting birds and the setting that is helpful for shooting sports games😉👍

    • @adrianalfordphotography
      @adrianalfordphotography  2 роки тому +1

      Thanks for watching. I assign my AF-ON button group area focus as that is the focus mode I use mostly for both birds in general and birds in flight. Single point is for birds sitting mainly on branches. Anything over 6400 ISO and your pictures start to get very grainy on both the D850 and D750. However in my next video out next Saturday the 29th of October I use a cheap program to fix high iso issues like noise and it is especially good for birds which I'll show. Have a great weekend 📸🙏

    Hi Adrian - Thanks for this video its fantastic and I love this setting on the D750- Quick question for you, when Im setting up for a time laps do I just set the focus once on Af-l button or do I turn off the AF-L button to OFF in that instance ? Thanks Pen

    • @adrianalfordphotography
      @adrianalfordphotography  4 роки тому +2

      Hi Pen - thanks heaps for watching. If you're doing a time lapse you are correct in that all you have to do is hit the AF button on the back of the camera once to get your initial focus point. Then start your time lapse. The camera will stay focused on that point until your time lapse is finished or until you hit the AF button again and select another point to focus on. Hope this helps. 🙏

    • @adrianalfordphotography
      @adrianalfordphotography  4 роки тому +1

      Hello, thank you for watching. Personally, I would go for the Nikon 200-500mm because it is lighter in weight and has the brighter aperture F5.6 at 500mm. But that's just me. Everyone is different. I suggest you investigate each lens thoroughly through reviews (or even hire one first to try) to make sure it's the right lens for you. Have a great day 😀

  • @marclabro

    super tricks ! when bird is still, doesn't GRP focus select the beak instead of the eye,... and so less good than single point ? If we now extend it to fashion photography where the girl moves towards you or perpendicular to you and you focus with GRP on eye. no risk to focus on noze, ears,... instead of eye as we woul have with sony a7r3 or z6II (when it works) ?

    • @adrianalfordphotography
      @adrianalfordphotography  4 роки тому
