    what do you mean? What’s so strange about say 1/1000s f/4 in daylight?

    There’s no issue what so ever.

    Practice and money.

    Better body with full frame has less noise, but costs

    Better lenses with lower Fstops, but costs

    Learning the lighting situations.

    They fill their memory cards with thousands of pics and cull down to the best ~10%

    People don’t see the other 900 throwaways, they just see the good ones. So they think wildlife photographers go out there and click a few perfect pics and then go home.
