The RAW burst option on the Canon EOS R7 can record images up to 0.5 seconds before shooting begins, which makes it easier to capture fleeting or unexpected moments. "It's just incredible for wildlife photography," says Dani Connor. "You can't predict animals, so you don't know when they're going to do something."

Wildlife photography requires patience, persistence and a sound knowledge of animal behaviour and fieldcraft techniques. A very long lens doesn't hurt either. The Canon EOS system has much to offer professional wildlife photographers, with a vast range of telephoto and super-telephoto prime and zoom lenses available, along with high-speed, high-quality camera bodies, built to withstand punishing conditions like those encountered when seeking elusive animals.
