Wildlife Photography Experience at Healesville Sanctuary
Join Sony Digital Imaging Advocate Eric Peng for an exciting day of wildlife photography at Healesville Sanctuary.
This relaxed and social photography experience is designed for photographers of all skill levels who want to capture stunning images of Australia's unique native wildlife while trying a selection of the latest Sony cameras and lenses. Participants will have access to a selected range of Sony loan cameras and premium telephoto lenses (subject to availability).
We'll enjoy a leisurely walk through Healesville Sanctuary, photographing iconic Australian animals including koalas, kangaroos, wombats, birds of prey, reptiles, and more. Along the way, Eric will share practical advice on wildlife photography, including autofocus techniques, exposure settings, composition, animal behaviour, and how to make the most of telephoto lenses in a variety of environments.
Whether you're new to wildlife photography or looking to refine your skills, this workshop offers the perfect opportunity to learn, experiment with Sony imaging equipment, and connect with fellow photography enthusiasts.
