The main thing is not the specific kit you buy though a long focal length lens is pretty much a ticket to entry for wildlife work unless you can reliably get very close to your subjects. I know some working biologists that can get by with fairly modest focal length lenses but they work very close to wildlife and have an entire career in understanding wildlife behavior and knowing how to get closer which changes things a lot.
If you have a lot of disposable income then sure, buy high end stuff with great features but when many of us started out we took it in stages, bought what we could afford and justify, mastered that gear or reached a point where our gear was limiting our abilities more than other things like field skills and understanding of camera controls, light and the like and then upgraded as we could afford.Įxactly what gear depends a lot on your budget, your experience in photography of any kind and the sort of wildlife subjects you hope to photograph as well as how close you expect to get to them at the start. My take on it is start with what your budget allows. Click to expand.That's a big subject and you're likely to get a variety of conflicting opinions which is par for the course on Internet forums.
