I use Lightroom and file images in folders labeled by date (because I can usually remember when I made images). If I used more than one card on a date, I use subfolders for each card (usually identified by camera name). I also use key words. Not very elaborate, but works for me.
I use the 7D mark ii for wildlife. The focus is quick and the frames per second is very good. I highly recommend it for your use.
Very nice! That kind of "luck" usually results from a lot of time spent with little or nothing to show for it. Thanks for sharing.
I always format in camera and have never had a problem.
I went with a group on a bus, and would use a car if I go again. On the bus I had to pass up many opportunities for images because we were moving. I especially would have liked to photograph their horses, nursing foals, etc., but was not able to.
The Nikon 200mm macro is one of the best I have ever used.
I agree with Brucewells first answer. Renting is much cheaper than upgrading used to be. If you are not likely to be interested in new features in PSLR then the fixed versions may be ok, as long as you don't upgrade your camera to one that your current software doesn't recognize. You will probably always be able to convert your raw images to the Adobe's "raw" if that works for you.
I vividly remember my "snipe hunt." A real thrill.
My Induro tripod seems to be as well built as my Gitzo. If I ever have to replace the Gitzo it will be with an Induro.
I use exposure compensation. Not sure about Nikons, but it is easy to do on Canons.
Agree with SharpShooter!!
I have seen that result that I attributed to a bad card, so I abandoned the card. Problem did not reoccur.
I expose in raw, and I mostly photograph landscape and wildlife. Usually there is time to test exposure (histogram) when shooting landscape. With wildlife, when I move into a different lighting situation I adjust the exposure even is no wildlife is currently visible. That way, when wildlife enters the scene I have a reasonable chance of getting good exposures. And with today's cameras and PS/LR wide adjustment possibilities, I am usually able to get images that print well.
Sorry I misunderstood what you were asking. I have the 5DIII and if you go to "image quality" on the first set of features you can set there are 8 different sizes you can set the jpeg files to. The size here refers only to the file size of the image. I suspect it i similar on the 5DIV. On the back of my camera it is the first feature in the left most part of the user settings.Hope this helps.
