Loads of great questions on the back of this video - definitely inspiring some future more in depth videos for Lightroom!

Marine life photography! Like on the water fishing.
Interesting to watch how quickly you edit and able to move on to the next. Your shots look great. I would never thought to edit the one thru the net, but yours turned out pretty good! Thanks.
Thank you- it was far from great but an example of what you can do. I'll do a live edit at some point definitely
Great tip about using the radial filter to brighten the face of the one player!!
Great vid Rob
Awesome video Rob, really needed this one. A few games ago, I photographed a celebration through the goal net, and I just left the photo. Think I might go back and edit it tomorrow.
Thanks Jamie. Yeah worth having a play
Hey, just discovered your channel! Really appreciate your no nonsense approach in this one, helped me a lot. I find a lot of photography tip channels go so far with the edits that it’s just not practical when faced with 1000+ sports shots from one event!
Anyway, apologies if you made this video already, but I’d love any tips for combat sport, like boxing, indoor with a dimly lit ring. Trying to edit them now! Thanks in advance
Awesome! Very helpful.
YESSSSSSS! been looking for a lightroom one for agggeeesss
Thank you man. I've got some more Lightroom ones coming
@@RobSambles looking forward to them! 💪👍🏻
Daniel Haswell Photography Rob keeps it simple which is key for sport photographers. Too many of the LR videos on TH-cam are way too complicated and time consuming
Great tips .Im very amateur and I just tried to shoot a sports event, Karate with an 80D and twin lens kit. Took about a 1500 and got about 10 decent photos, and about 100 usefull for the folks who were in it. Got one of boxing those spit leaving the mouth photos but the guy was facing away. I also learned sometimes sports mode AF will focus on a busy backround. I dont know if there is a way to bracket focus within two limits. I also didnt notice I was shooting a little too close and body parts are cutoff sometimes. Its all learning.
17:01 = I don’t care
17:02 = *subscribed*
Simple and powerful. Loving your work from Penang, Malaysia 🇲🇾
Haha thank you I appreciate that
Like before viewing. Makes sense
I watched this video just to see if what I'm doing with my sports photos are what others are doing. Turns out it's pretty similar. Great video!
Thank you!
Just found your channel and great tips for a novice.
Awesome, thank you!
Amazing!!!!!
Great video Rob. Do you calibrate your monitor? I noticed you do the use the histogram? Also, you don't use the mask slider when sharpening?
Hey John, I tried to do these with a quick edit like you would pitchside, I didn't include lots of details that you would want to if you're working on an image a bit more. Generally speaking I tried to look at stuff you could do with an image and have it sent within 3 mins of taking the shot. My monitor is calibrated yes.
Thank you for this. Are there any go-to aspect ratios or do you just crop to suit the ideal composition for the shot?
I see you are not afraid to crop in considerably, but is there a limit you dont go beyond, for instance no smaller than an 8 megapixel crop?
Funny I just watched United and Chelsea play yesterday, and ofc again “in the last minute” action occurred
Great video mate, some cracking pics there! Out of curiosity do you shoot RAW or JPG? Seeing that those images are JPG.
Thank you. For work like this I shoot jpeg because the files are faster to work with when you're sending live
16:58. As in Jared Polin. Hahaha.
Presets Rob save a lot of time
I find your voice slightly soothing, great video
Haha thanks man
Always amazing video and i had watch rob gray also and told him that you send me i also do sports photography so can u explain how to find and work as sports photography
Thank you. I'll talk more about stuff like that in future videos yes
Hello Sir. I saw some of your videos today and I'm doing my first steps in sports photography. I really like your work and the fact that you get the chance to work in the premier league speaks for itself. I hit the subscribe button in no time. I saw another video that you shoot with the Canon 1DX which is an 18MP camera. I see now that you crop quite a lot. Do you notice any significant loss in image quality when cropping that much with an 18MP sensor?
Hey Bob, thanks for the video. I photograph dog sports on the side and have a website for my wildlife photography, but it doesn’t give me a great platform to sell large amounts of the sports photos to clients. Can you tell me the best and hopefully free ways I can load over 200 or so photos online so that clients can choose from them? I don’t need them to purchase them from the website, as I prefer to just email them finalized digital prints and send them an invoice. Can you tell me the best way I can load them into a giant client folder they can choose from? I hope this makes sense. I’m using squarespace at this time, but I’m finding it maddingly difficult to load them all up on there for easy client access. Any thoughts? Thanks.
Hi Gary. My website is with squarespace which I actually find easy to use. Have you tried speaking to their customer support line to help you work it out? Free ones are Facebook, flicker perhaps?
How do u set up the Eos canon camera for sport cannot find it
Hi Rob, thanks for the content as always. I just wondered if certain media prefer sports photos to be submitted at specific aspect ratios? I would appear not as you are freely cropping these images. I had been trying to stick to 2/3 or 4/3 for consistency but maybe you see this an unnecessary.
In my experience some will want you to maintain 4:3 and some not too worried
@@RobSambles Cheers mate :)
I realize i too asked about aspect ratios i see its answered here.
How do you handle noise on your pictures when you crop
For a typical football game, about how many images would you supply if let's say it's a college contracting for their games?
Great video.
I have two questions.
1. I recently shot a non league level football match at night with poor lighting. This caused my ISO settings to be quite high and left many of my shots with a lot of noise/graining. Is there a way i can edit the picture to reduce the noise in the photos?
2. Do you have any advice for what to do settings wise when shooting sport such as football matches at night where the lighting isn't so great to prevent a lot of noise in the image?
Many thanks.
@SC85Photography... I also shoot a lot of High School football and High School soccer games and as you know the lighting is very bad at those fields, especially towards the end of the (end zones) field. Even though I shoot the games with 2.8 aperture lenses I get some noise. There is a great program that will almost eliminate all the noise from you photos. It's called Topaz DeNoise AI (www.topazlabs.com/denoise-ai). I was skeptical at first when a friend told me about it but I downloaded the free trial version of it and I was amazed of how well it worked. Look up some videos of this program on TH-cam. Hopefully that will work for you. 📷
I Rob. I have a question. how much of the image can I crop to social media without losing photo quality? I have a 24 megapixel camera. Sometimes i crop 50% of the image but i dont know if i can crop more without losing quality.
For most social networks you could crop way more considering most of them only display photos 1080p wide. I made a video on it - take a look back on my channel
do you recommend batch auto editing. if so, do you have a video on batch editing?
I use my presets as a starting point which is the same as batch editing but I do then touch up every shot individually
Can you please tell me how to get a shadow at the bottom and have a light at the top😁
Graduated filter will do that for you
hi rob
greetings, from Indonesia.
may i know the picture style from your eos 6D Mark II while you shot the photo.
best regards rob.
I use standard picture style for pretty much everything
Also, you didn't use the colour channels when editing the black and white? I thought that word have been the first thing to do with any BW photo?
That's just a very simple b+w conversion for the photo, I'd actually very rarely use black and white for live sports images (like 1 in 1000 maybe). For a 'proper' b+w conversion you would want to play with the colour channels 100%
Do you think an R6 will give enough detail to crop field sports such field hockey, soccer and rugby?
Yeah it's fine for me
@@RobSambles Great to hear! Picking up an RF 70-200, so I can at least get 1/2 the pitch!
Any free editing software?
Don't know how this works with .jpgs, but with those guys in the high viz vests, you can desaturate the vests and bring down the highlights in the vests. Decrease the contrast there and reduce calrity and sharpness, what works. With this particular composition, you can even do this with a graduated filter.
Yeah great shout - I think that would work
Best regards from a colleague from Germany, Rob. You should mention that the degree of sharpening of your sports photos depends on the Pricture Style settings on your camera. Stay healthy! www.sportblen.de
Yes great point. I figured I'd keep this video a bit more basic and then cover more detailed topics separately
dude get to the point i have to skip 3 minutes on each of your videos cause you talk nonsense of 2:46 straight
Nah - I think you'll find it was 2.11 in this one 🤷♂️. Glad to hear you keeping watching anyway!
You can make your point without being disrespectful. Maybe you should try making a video about photography. People need Jesus, people show too much hate
I'm just thankful Rob is sharing knowledge so I LEARN! Thanks Rob!
