How I Set Up My Camera for Wildlife Photography

Modern cameras have hundreds of settings, but in my experience, only a handful truly change the way you photograph wildlife. In this video, I walk you through the 12 camera settings I actually use on every safari. More importantly, I explain why I use them. The goal isn't to copy my setup, but to understand the thinking behind it so you can build a setup that works for you. If you've ever felt overwhelmed by endless camera menus, I hope this video helps you simplify your workflow and focus on what really matters: making better photographs. If you'd like to dive deeper into autofocus and learn how I approach focusing for wildlife photography, I've made a dedicated video on the topic.
