Great Grey Owl in 4k. GH5S 240fps slowmotion

Mar 22, 2019

This beautiful Great Grey Owl (Lappugle, Strix Nebulosa) have been in the south part of Norway this year, usually they stay mostly in Sweden/Hedmark but because of an good mice year they have been found other places in Norway

I spent 3 days with this owl so it was a lot of waiting even if the video doesn't show that

This is an wild owl and no feeding was done while filming.

240fps slowmotion from GH5S is upscaled to 4k.

Gear Used:
Panasonic GH5S / Gh5
Atomos Ninja Inferno 4.2.2 10bit
Canon EF 500mm F4 L IS USM
Tamron 150-600mm F5-6,3 G2
Metabones Speedbooster XL 0,64

The owl is beautiful, and you are most patient. I love birds of prey (except when they're after my chickens!)

I've still never seen one in the wild. A buddy of mine was hunting elk out near our area a few years back, coming through some brush and trees and suddenly there was a Grey Owl on a branch right in front of him. He said it looked about the same size as a person, and just sat there glaring, not surprised, probably saw him coming a mile away. My friend backed up and cleared out - big owls can really screw a person up if they feel like it.
