Imagine taking a 500mm lens on safari that is, at first glance, easily mistakable for a 70-200 2.8. With Nikons latest addition to the PF lens range, the 500 f5.6 PF, wildlife photographers have been given exactly that. A 500mm lens that isn’t far off a 70-200 f2.8 in size and weight. I’ll just say […] The post Nikon 500 f5.6 PF review. On safari with the small lens packing a powerful punch! appeared first on Richard Peters Wildlife Photography ..read more

My review of the Nikon 180-400 TC1.4 E FL comes from a slightly unusual angle. I had the lens to shoot with briefly before the world even knew it officially existed. Then I was able to shoot with it again, months later, once it had been officially released. The highs and lows of shooting with […] The post Nikon 180-400 TC1.4 review: King of zooms appeared first on Richard Peters Wildlife Photography ..read more

This year the plan was to write a slightly more poignant end of year review than the more typical ‘here’s a list of everything I’ve done’ type thing. Whilst they of course serve a purpose, I don’t find they always have much meaning to them. Frustratingly I have run out of time to write such […] The post Appreciating 2017, a look back over the last 12 months. appeared first on Richard Peters Wildlife Photography ..read more

The challenge was simple. As part of the 100th Anniversary of Nikon, Digital SLR Photography magazine wanted to run a limited edition issue. Four photographers were tasked with each providing a cover image. The catch? It not only had to be a new image but also taken with a specific camera. In my case, the […] The post Brown Bear: Behind the magazine cover shot [Video] appeared first on Richard Peters Wildlife Photography ..read more

This post goes beyond the basics of simply knowing how to switch between Aperture, Shutter Priority and Manual or using Back Button Focus. Whilst helpful, they’re just the start of getting the most from […] The post 5 camera settings to improve your wildlife photography appeared first on Richard Peters Wildlife Photography ..read more
