Bird and Wildlife Photography: The Full Picture
Capturing the beauty of birds and wildlife goes beyond having the right camera and lens; it’s about the entire setup—gear, techniques, and knowledge working together for an immersive experience. In my bird and wildlife photography series, I cover key aspects for success.
The Ultimate Micro Four Thirds Wildlife Lens Guide explores lenses from 150mm to 2400mm, helping you select the right ones for capturing everything from distant birds to close-up animal portraits.
In The Art of Camouflage, I discuss how blending into nature with earthy tones in your gear and clothing helps you remain unnoticed, allowing animals to stay comfortable while you photograph them.
Shooting Birds and Wildlife with Back-Button Focus on Olympus and OM System Cameras focuses on a technique that improves focus speed and accuracy, essential for capturing fast-moving or elusive wildlife.
These articles offer a full guide to wildlife photography, from gear choices and camera settings to preparation, safety, and reviews.
I hope you find them helpful!
P.S.
My articles are based on personal experience, learning from others, and insights from fellow photographers who generously share tips. It’s all about sharing knowledge to help each other grow.
If you’re a bird or wildlife photographer with tips, ideas, or even a different opinion, feel free to share! Knowledge is for everyone, and I’m always learning too.
Marc.

Een lens van 2400 mm nog nooit vastgehad! Dat moet imposant zijn.
Het zal bij dromen blijven.

Wel, bij Olympus kan het, en het is zelfs niet zo groot en super zwaar. Lens en camera compleet blijft het onder de 3kg. Het grootste probleem is het ding stilhouden met zo’n kleine beeldhoek.
