    So thankful I came across this video!! I’m certainly not a professional photographer...just a mom trying to get some really great shots of her goalkeeper! Your videos have given me the confidence to FINALLY take my camera out of auto mode. Thank you!!!

      You are very welcome Jennifer. Chaek out my goalkeeper shot on Insta (see link), not many people shoot from this angle, but I love it.
      Best wishes 😀

    3 extra tips - 1 - ISO Auto works better cause when the apperture is not enough it will know and go up just enough to solve the exposure problem and whenever it checks the apperture is enough it goes down, so you only get as grainny pics as it's needed and never above that, I call it the Policeman cause it's constantly assuring effeciency / 2 - You did not suggested exactly what fast speed to use, I would recommend around 1/2000, more would be great (1/3200) but that can pull up the ISO too much / 3 - To avoid big deviations meetering area should not be on dot, but given sometimes the big difference in light from subject to background, centre weighted meetering shall be better than full matrix/evaluative, cheers and keep up the excellent work

    I think you Rock, I just bought a Canon rebel T7 and had no idea how to use it, I had looked at other videos and they talk so fast and they move their fingers in the camera so fast I will start keeping up with them. You make this look easy in your comfortable in your reach out to your customer and you know how to show the camera and you are patient you’re my kind of teacher I liked your style. Great work! Hopefully I will be taking wildlife pictures and of my dogs and so forth someday I’ll be good as youWith your help. God bless

    Great video. The same method I tried for capturing birds. Really happy that I did correct one that you described.
    Initialy I was manual mode. But very hard to handle.
    Later I changed ISO settings to Auto ISO. Just keep adjusting my shutter only.
    Another great video. Thanks for making this video sir.
    Have a great day.

    So I can see where single point AF would be great when you are focusing on one person/player. I am photographing a marching band. I want a large part of the field to be in focus. What setting would you use to accomplish this? I am using the Canon 80D with the Tamron 18-400 lens. The next event will be a 6 pm game so under the lights on the football field. Thanks

  • @Lovinglycrochet
    @Lovinglycrochet 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Thank you for this great explanation! Helped me immensely. What is the best shutter speed (I have a canon). I assume 1/4000 would be the quickest but I saw yours on 1/800?

    • @photogenius
      @photogenius  4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      "What is the best shutter speed" is one of the questions I get asked, I've made a video all about it that will answer your question full, here's the link and I hope you enjoy it : th-cam.com/video/98J200KEPog/w-d-xo.html

  • @postnavodi
    @postnavodi ปีที่แล้ว

    Thank you, new subscription and like from me. If only I saw this video before my ski trip, but with some pre-focusing I managed to capture my jumps. Thus, I have a question: If it wasn't 'burst' mode, how would you actually take shots in focus? As I understand, half finger is focusing (continuous mode). If you want to take 2 or more photos, (e.g. 2 clicks when I really want) you would need to release and click again which would result losing it? Am I right?
    I guess this can be solved with assigning another button a focus option, but the beat solution would be what you had said - burst mode which I did not know to set on my camera :/.
    Thank you, now I am just interested in your response even though in your video you told a solution.

    Since I upgraded my camera to that of one that is a point & shoot with capabilities of a DSLR, I can better quality sports photos.
    I am sports photographer, albeit motor racing. These tips are going to help me with fine tuning the were & vastly improve my photos. I was easily able to apply the Nikon settings on mine.
    If you have any tips on tweaking for motor racing, I certainly would be appreciative.
    Watching these videos is like sitting in a classroom. Very educational.

    Due to inflation; the cost of camera equipment has skyrocketed.. so upgrading even to a Sony ZV-E10 off ebay is unlikely... So I'm trying to maximize what I have

    Great tips and I love that the explanations are understandable, and with 2 different types of cameras!

    Very concise and great info. I would have generally known this but good to get a refresher course as I'm shooting a few pics today. Maybe you could have touched on how weather conditions affect shooting. Bright sunshine or a dull day. But I guess the camera will adjust and 'talk' to you. And also your position. I'm assuming you would always try have the sun behind you. But this makes the subject very bright....

    OK THANKS FOR THE EXPLANATION BECAUSE I WAS THINKING THAT ONLY COSTLY CAMERAS HAS A CONTINUOUS SHOOTING ABILITY, BUT NOW I GOT THIS IDEA SO I CAN NOW DO A GOOD OR AWSOME MOVING BIRDS OR ANIMALS PHOTOGRAPHY, AND I WILL FORGET ALL OF THE COSTLY CAMERAS I WISHED TO BUY

    Im curious, on a bright sunny moringing/day. if I am shooting in my backyard or at a park for example, do I want a low or high f/ number with a Nikon?

    Learning with the Rebel T7. Taking lots of sports photos with my son’s soccer team. Some games at night on the soccer fields- very bright lights. Can’t seem to get the pictures to come out looking quite right. Suggestions? I’m totally new to the camera world.

    • @photogenius
      @photogenius  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      May I suggest a fast shutter speed - try 1/500 of a second as a minimum, if your son is older and the game is faster then try to get covert to 1/000.
      Aperture wide open (lowest f number) and just the ISO accordingly.
      If the light is good then hopefully you won't need to push the ISO too far, if however the light is not so good then increase ISO to help maintain a faster shutter speed.

    Paul just got a d3400 and love this video...do you shoot sports in raw or jpeg? thanks

    • @photogenius
      @photogenius  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I almost exclusively shoot RAW regardless of what I'm shooting. Thanks for watching Grace.

      @@photogenius Paul thanks so much...one more quick question, I have found that single point focus is working pretty well for me but in what situation would AF area mode be beneficial? thanks so much

    Hi about to upgrade to my first DSLR, mainly going to be taking action photos of my daughters netball and horse riding tossing up between the canon 800d and the Nikon 5600 which would you recommend

    • @photogenius
      @photogenius  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      To be honest either of these cameras would be good, in fact they ate almost identical in terms of specifications. I would go for the Nikon only because it has 39 focus points versus 19 on the Canon.
      Thanks for watching.

    What about night time sports under stadium lights? What settings would you suggest for Nikon? TIA

    @allanfischer9417 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thanks so much for the concise coverage of setting up the Nikon for sports photography! Mine is a little different (d5000) but I was able to get it done because of your explanation of what & why.
