Campaign Story
Dear Visitor,
Thank you for interest. My hobby is taking photos from the nature, but I don't have a really good camera to make 'pictures like a dream'. I would like to buy a Nikon D5 DSLR camera and a professional lens (Nikon NIKKOR Z) to take amazing pictures.
I think nature 'shooting' is one of the best things of life. I would like to take close-up photos from animals remotely. That's my dream.
Why DSLR (Digital Single-Lens Reflex camera)?
"There are lots of advantages to going mirrorless, but a digital SLR (DSLR) still offers the best handling. Until recently, only DSLRs had the autofocus speed, continuous shooting rates and lens selection for serious wildlife photography.
DSLRs typically use autofocus based on phase detection. This method allows the optimal lens position to be calculated, rather than "found", as would be the case with autofocus based on contrast maximisation. Phase-detection autofocus is typically faster than other passive techniques. As the phase sensor requires the same light going to the image sensor, it was previously only possible with an SLR design. However, with the introduction of focal-plane phase detect autofocusing in mirrorless interchangeable lens cameras can now employ both phase detect and contrast detect AF points. "
"If bees disappeared off the face of the earth, man would only have four years left to live."
The line is usually attributed to Einstein, and it seems plausible enough. After all, Einstein knew a lot about science and nature, and bees help us produce food.
The bee transfers pollen from the male flower to the lady bits of female flowers. It's almost impossible to overstate the importance of pollinators in our ecosystem.
Costs of this equipment and accessories:
- Nikon D5 DSLR Camera, about 4000 GBP
- Nikon Nikkor Z 24-70 mm f/2.8 S Objective, about 2500 GBP
This is the new price, but I would like to buy an used (overall about 4000GBP) one instead of new. I can take care for maintenance of camera and objective lenses, because I'm a 'Service Tech' guy. :-)
My hope is this funding project will be live and I can do the best as I can for take a high-end quality photos and videos. If the project is finally earned the goal I will make my own website to share with everyone my photos of my life, so everybody can see through the camera lens "how I feel my hobby". I will send a notification to all of my supporters about my website details.
Maybe, in the far future I would like to take wedding photos as well, but this need a lot of experience of 'shooting', well at first, I hope my dream will come true.
Finally, everybody has a dream or dreams, we decide if we try everything or not, but the most important is never needed to give up the dreams. Dreams are the one of the best things that can live inside in every hearth, just need sought to achieve the goals.
"Nothing is impossible, just helpless"
Thank you!
