Thanks for the love Curtis! I am Pieter from PBRacingPhotos with the panning shot. Thank you for inspiring me and my partner to push further into photography!
This video came at the perfect time for me, love it!! I just shot my second cycling event which was also my first paid gig. The motorspot photography translates to cycling pretty dang well! More "in the field" videos please!!
Nice video, nice shots, and props for giving this style of racing a shot. Rally photography is an awesome time! Not much of an opportunity to nail the shot, so being prepared is key. I like to use a shutter speed of 1/250 and adjust based on local conditions. It allows for the car to be reasonably crisp and have a bit of blur on the wheels. In my mind it helps to tell the story of the speed and challenge that the teams are facing. Try shooting some night stages sometime! Use care with flash and try to aim from the “B” pillar or behind to help keep from blinding the team as much. We like to get shots of the 0 cars, and heavy sweeps. These usually get shared with the organizers so they can use them for whatever their imagination can cook up. Volunteering at a marshal point, flying finish, or stage start is usually a good bet to get a decent spot. We usually prefer to be "free range photographers". Your high viz vest and common sense are key items here. A handheld HAM radio is useful to listen to the rallynet to keep informed of what’s going on and for emegency use...there isn't always cell reception. The rally community is friendly and are always happy to see people return! Check out some of our work: facebook.com/unboxedphotostudios
Any idea where the next rally races are? Would love to go and get some rally shots. Or do you know where I can find out? Great shots, keep up the good work.
You really could tell your enjoyment in your video bro it had me hyped as well. every shot i was like now that's a banger nope next was a banger and so on loved to see more like this. Also it was very informative as well.
Absolutley love the edits on these! Did you use a preset from your pack? If yes, which one? If not, would you mind sharing these specific Settings as a preset. Thanks again, great work!
I liked the video a lot. Have you had a chance to try this type of photography using the Sony a7rV? I take this type of photos as a hobby and I am thinking of buying one of these two cameras, I like the resolution of the a7rv but I don't know if there is a real difference in focus. Have you lost many photos because they were not in focus? Thank you!
Loved this video bud. Hoping to get upto dalby for the Malton Forest Rally on the 6th November. Would be great to see more car and Motorsport photography (being a car photographer myself) also tutorials too.
Ayyy legend thanks mate! I'm sure I'll do them videos in the future, do like making videos around cars and motorsports! Take some dope shots around Dalby when you go mate and have fun! 🤙
Awesome Curtis, I’ve seen a few of yours and other’s videos on motor sport and really fancy trying my hand at it. I just hope my long lens is fast enough 🤣. I’m on the email list for the company that runs Oulton Park among others but really need to look at where the rally stages are being held
hi, first of all congratulations for the photos I wanted to ask you what settings you use to photograph rallies. I bought the Sony 7 IV recently and I wanted some advice like focus area etc. Thank you and good day
Great shots! It doesn’t look like many other people are at the locations you were shooting from, did you have to get a press pass to get into those areas? I’m in the U.S. and am going to attempt to photograph the Sno Drift winter race, and am currently pondering on whether I should get a press pass or not to get good shots. This is my first time going to a race.
i couldn't attach the lens hood after throwin Nd fitlter on it, is that normal? that means, i have to use the lens without the hood if i were to use a filter?
Hello! What kind of programs do you use? I am not only referring to editing ones, but to those that can reduce noise or polish the quality and sharpness of your photos. By the way, we love your way of working, we are learning with your new contributions :D Greetings and thanks!
Glad you enjoyed the video! However, this is far from spray and pray, it's a fast paced environment, cars are traveling at 60mph on dirt. I'm tracking the subject throughout the frame and capturing every moment. Now you might be asking why? Well when I get back to editing, yes I have thousands of photos. But I also keep all the good ones. In this shooting setting and sceniro it's a case of shoot and rapid fire, tracking the subjects perfectly. If I was doing this shooting methodology with somthing like street photography I would be in agreement with you, but this is sports, it's a fast paced environment. Clearly you haven't had enough experience in this field, if you did you wouldn't make a statement like that. Hope that clear things up!
The color grade on this video is as excellent as the edited photos! Great video
Thanks bro! 🤙
The hot braking disk shot... tops it all off.
Thanks for the love Curtis! I am Pieter from PBRacingPhotos with the panning shot. Thank you for inspiring me and my partner to push further into photography!
Hi Pieter really great hear I've been able to inspire yourself! Hope you can continue to do so in the future! Keep up the great work as well! 🔥📷
As someone who is still learning the art, this video is GOLDEN.
This video came at the perfect time for me, love it!! I just shot my second cycling event which was also my first paid gig. The motorspot photography translates to cycling pretty dang well! More "in the field" videos please!!
What motorosport stuff should I do in the future? 🤔🤙
It's not motorsport, but have you also tried/considered road cycling racing? It's also pretty fun. You definitely have some big races in the UK.
I know its slightly different and only 2 wheels 😂but moto gp is meant to be good.
The 70-200 seems to be worth it's weight in gold for this video! Awesome shots!
Couldn't agree more one of the best purchases I've ever made! 🔥
Excellent video Curtis really caught the raw energy of a rally event, and some proper cracking shots
Nice video, nice shots, and props for giving this style of racing a shot.

amazingly some of the cars were turbocharged! Thats mad🔥🔥🔥
Rally is just so sick!!
Couldn't agree more! 🤙

Ayyy legend! Great hearing you enjoyed it as well! Definitely wanna do some more rallying in the future! I'm hooked into it now 🔥
@@CurtisPadley awesome look forward to seeing more. Enjoy your trip to the great NYC 🤜🏼
Awesome content! Loved the B Roll at the beginning, certainly gonna have to get myself to some rallying sometime.
Ayyy thanks mate! Definitely give it ago! 🤙
Be awesome to have you up in Newcastle in the near future for a photo walk.
Great shots. What camera did you use for the intro rally b-roll, was it still the Sony A74?
The shots look insane Curtis!!
Ayyy legend thanks mate! 🤙
Absolutley love the edits on these!
Did you use a preset from your pack?
If yes, which one?
If not, would you mind sharing these specific Settings as a preset.
Thanks again, great work!
That intro was dope!
Thanks mate 🤙
Wow... you put yourself in a risky position there 🤣 Nice one. Great shots.
This video is incrible!!!!!👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
This is why I subscribed A+

Hello nice Video waht is the Autofokus Setting and the Fokusfield setting 👍😄
What a day we had ♥️
Enjoyed the video, what's your thought process of using the live view type of shooting rather than the eyepiece...
Would love to know what the b roll intro was shot on!!
good stuff, love how you had good access to the cars, something that is getting harder to gain these days
Couldn't agree more, Rallying is probably one of the last motorosport where you get insanely close to the action! 🔥
If I was giong to pick up a camera for specifically shooting action sports photography would I be better served getting the A9 II over the A7IV?
Loved this video bud. Hoping to get upto dalby for the Malton Forest Rally on the 6th November.
Would be great to see more car and Motorsport photography (being a car photographer myself) also tutorials too.
Ayyy legend thanks mate!
I'm sure I'll do them videos in the future, do like making videos around cars and motorsports!
Take some dope shots around Dalby when you go mate and have fun! 🤙
@@CurtisPadley sounds good mate, look forward to those. Yeah I'm looking forward to it 😀
Hey Curtis what focus area do you usually go with? I go with expand spot mostly
great video a tip try to use more the evf when anning so you can get more stabble shots than using the screen
Hey, really cool video and thanks for sharing it. What kind of focus - settings are you using for this shoots?

Great video!! Are you using your presets? If yes, what's the pack they're in? The pictures look so good, planning to buy them.
Hi ,what was Your AF setting ?
Cool event and pics, Curtis. Re: personal safety, did you have to sign any kind of damages waiver? Cheers!
Thanks dude! No nothing mate. Just me, my camera and plenty of trees to hide behind 😂
Great shots! It doesn’t look like many other people are at the locations you were shooting from, did you have to get a press pass to get into those areas?

Man your footage looks incredible! What did you use to shoot the video with?
Any chance someone could give me some info on how to find out when these events are taking place and how to get tickets to watch etc. thanks
Do you think the sigma can hold up to that the 70 to 200

i really like this guys videos but he is the definition of mr spray and prey (joke)
