Looking for a video on what you need to know about working around a hot track for safety, unspoken rules, things to watch for, what equipment I should wear, do i need a radio? Those kind of things.
Tips for working automotive racing photographers at tracks would be great.
Hey, hope you are well, that is on my list, but as I haven't had too much involved inside the tracks I don't want to speak about something I don't have a lot experience of. However, each track has its own rules in terms of how one can get the media pass and how easy o difficult the request process can be. There are some things you need. 1) Liability insurance (in case of accident) 2) You can move freely on the track as far is safe to do so (there are some areas you can not stand to take picture for safety reasons) However whenever you are in the track always look for a quick exit or be safe as an incident can happen. 3) They will provide you a Media hi vis vest. 4) the radio it will depend if you are working with a team or someone else, or if you want to listen the circuit channel to know what is happening.
I hope this can help and get you an idea of what you need to start with. Please, if you have any other enquiry let me know. Happy to help.
Hopefully I can make a video with more details soon.
@@JDanielV27 Thank you so much for your response. Between other youtube channels and yourself it has helped me build up a mental plan for my days at the track over the next two weeks.
This is a very helpful and knowledgeable video! I did not know that you could change the subject type to cars.
Ohh yes! now the cameras comes with different subject selection for focus tracking. People, Animals and cars. When you select cars and if it is a motorcycle it will look for the helmet. it is so cool!
I'm a beginner, and in my first events I took my photos in 1/2000, and I was never happy with the result, so I'm going to try between 1/60@1/160! thanks for the advice my friend!
Oooh nooo! I know the feeling 🤦♂️. When all the photos are ruined for the shutter speed.... adjust the shutter depending on the car's speed and you're ability on panning to achieve great results. Hope you can get amazing photos this time, I'd love to see the results. Best regards my friend
@@JDanielV27 if you want to see it, iam gonna show you!
Have a good one brother🤝
@@yoyoyoyoyoyo892 absolutely, looking forward to it 😎
Great video! As an additional tip: turn off your image stabilization if your lens doesn’t have a panning setting. I forgot at the first event I went to to try panning and I had only a few nice photos.
Yes, that is a great tip and practice when the lens doesn't have stabilisation. Thanks for mentioning it. I am sure it will help someone else too. It is a shame you missed some shots in the first event, now you are ready for the next one 😎
When panning if would go on full manual. As you said the motion during the exposure is giving you the background blur. But having a wide open lense will make more parts off the car blurry and potential the part you aim for. Depending of the angle the car intercepts the depth which is focused, the car might be quickly out of this small band of sharp ranges. Also the OS might have a separate mode for panning. Thnaks for the video Did Rallycross and DTM.
That's right, very well explained. Thanks for your comment, this will help others too. Last weekend was the final at Lydden Hill, it was amazing, it rained a lot on Saturday but Sunday was fine. Did you go to the final?
@@JDanielV27 only to Buxtehude a few times and Holjes last year.
@@TheRazerx7 That's awesome, I haven't been there yet, just seeing it on videos.
Thank you so much
You're very welcome 😎
Excellent video
Thanks a lot. Happy you liked it 😎 always it is good to help, more tutorials coming soon.
Thanks for this video, I learned a lot. Can you please, tell me what sort of lens you used?
That's awesome. Happy you learned a lot, thank you for your comment. I use the sigma 24mm f1.4 for wide shots, the Canon 50mm f1.4 lens for more details and compressed shots and the Canon RF 100-500mm for track racing. I used before the Canon EF 75 - 300mm. In the description are the links if you want to have a look the other gear I use. I could make a comparison tutorial with the lenses if you need more information. I made a review for the RF 100-500mm lens th-cam.com/video/zouxqkx6ifY/w-d-xo.html
@@JDanielV27 thanks lot
@@jazzyjohal830 It is my pleasure, happy that the information is helpful. if there is anything else please let me know.
Hey @@jazzyjohal830 Just remembered I made a review of the Sigma 24mm in my other YT channel, it is not about cars but maybe it can help. th-cam.com/video/PmdzxXpmnzg/w-d-xo.htmlsi=X2YwGR4OP76LMHxk
@@JDanielV27 ok, I will check it out, thanks
When shooting at night does the same settings work or you need a speedlite?
At night is quite tricky, you will need to bring up the ISO, too much will start getting some noise in the image, you can fix it after in post with denoise, but try not to increase it too a crazy levels. Lower aperture will help a lot too, Shutter speed will be similar. Try to find a good light spot so it will help to light the car. The Flash won't help at all as the cars are a bit far from the camera and the light will lose power over the distances, and if you use a more powerful flash you could dazzle the driver and that is not good. I hope this helps
@JDanielV27 thank you, I will help me a lot
What lense were you shooting with ?
I was using the canon RF 100-500 mm f4.6-7.1
I thought we have to use a maximum speed possible in shutter speed
Not at all times. When cars are facing to the camera where you can't see the wheels, you'll need a higher shutter speed to be able to freeze the car. In other circumstances we want to preserve the movement of the wheels; Otherwise, it will look like nothing is happening in the shot. There are some photographers that use the shutter speed at 1/15 sec in some shots (for more creative shots).
