Another of my Yellowstone video compilations. I still prioritize stills when I shoot, but I came away from three weeks in the park with about 3 hours of usable footage. The video is still 10 minutes long, so you do need a bit of time (and patience?) if you want to watch. ;)

That is really super cool Max. Nice job. It is remarkable how much wildlife you were able to film in such a short time there!

Love all of your videos did you shoot this with your 500mm and do you ever use 100-400 for this

Thanks guys. Jack, I shoot most of the wildlife footage with the 500, since that's my primary wildlife lens in the park. Though I had my 100-400 mounted on my 7D most of the time as my backup, I actually switched to the 70-200 (or 24-70) for video when I needed a wider view. The 70-200 happened to have my other plate mounted on it, and it allows for a slightly wider angle (and arguably better image quality) than the 100-400, so it worked great for some of the scenery footage.
