I am using a Nikon Z8 and hope to capture an occasional short clip when out photographing birds and wildlife in general. In June I have a workshop focusing on loons.....hopefully with babies. I would like the ability to use slow motion at times by selecting 30 fps in post......
After trying to learning via this website and the internet, I have set the camera up as follows:
H265 10 bit 120p SDR changed to H265 10 bit 120p Nlog Size 3840x2160, 120p
Shutter speed 1/250
Aperture f8
ISO starting at 800 -I plan to shoot in manual and adjust ISO to control exposure. Max 1600 Is this correct?
AF-F focus area mode AF-C, Wide Sm with Bird detection
Lenses: either the 100-400 or the 400 f4.5 with or without 1.4 tele. And maybe the 600mm TC....
Questions:
What do I have wrong and why?
What other settings should I check?
I don't mind shooting raw.......to do that, what settings should I change?
