Pigeons in flight are generally far away from the photographer, so it is very suitable to use a telephoto camera. Equipment can be completed by choosing Canon and Nikon cameras with telephoto lenses.
A telephoto lens refers to a lens with a long focal length, which generally means that the focal length exceeds100 mm. When the focal length exceeds 300mm, we call it a super telephoto lens. When shooting distant objects, the telephoto lens can enlarge the subject and produce the feeling of zooming in. For example, shooting birds in the distance, using the long focal length to make the birds fill the shooting picture, so as to achieve the effect of zooming in and out.
