Over the last few weeks I've created a series of videos that focus on the powerful Nikon D850 and it's use as a bird photography camera. Here are the three videos that came out of the work.
The Nikon D850 Bird Photography Guide
The Features That Make This The Best Bird Photography Camera
Here are the specific features that make the D850 the best bird photography camera. In the video I go over the features that make this camera hard to beat. Too, I'm giving you my honest opinion on what you should buy if you're new to bird photography.
In fact, I think so highly of this camera that I go as far as to call it the best wildlife photography camera.
Should You Buy the Nikon D850?
Watch this video for my honest opinion on the question: should you buy the Nikon D850. I tell you straight. If this is going to be your first bird photography camera then no, look at mirrorless cameras first. However, if you're familiar with DSLRs and want to upgrade, then look at the D850.
If you're interested in buying the Nikon D850 then check it out. I do get a commission if you buy from that link. So, if you want to thank me for creating this content that commission would really go a long way.
If you have any questions be sure to contact me to ask. Too, if you've not yet signed up for my free photography newsletter do so now.
