A place to politely discuss the tools, technique and culture of photography.

This is not a good place to simply share cool photos/videos or promote your own work and projects, but rather a place to discuss photography as an art and post things that would be of interest to other photographers.

Honestly for wildlife, if you’re in absolute full manual then your exposure will be all over the place, or you miss shots adjusting - I go manual with auto iso

Auto iso is a lifesaver

Having to only really adjust shutter speed is insanely helpful.

Recently went on a wildlife photography expedition in africa, I'm in the same boat. Manual with auto iso is pretty much the way to go - can use the iso indicator in the viewfinder to see make sure I'm alright especially in lower light conditions (though shooting 600mm at 1/80 is a bit of a challenge)

Auto iso is a must for live music. The lights change so quickly that you don’t have a chance.
