This is a great vid to show just how good older cameras and lenses are. You can buy used Canon Mark IVs for less than $1,000 and used 300 2.8s without IS for $1400. Not chump change but they still work as great as they did when this guy was using them. Older equipment is where it's at if you're on a budget.
I know Im asking randomly but does someone know a method to get back into an instagram account??
I stupidly lost the account password. I would love any help you can offer me!
@Eugene Quentin instablaster =)
@Xavier Jared I really appreciate your reply. I got to the site on google and I'm trying it out now.
Takes quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
This is the first Sports Photography video I've sen on CZcams that discusses technique instead of just showing off equipment.
This was a Great Watch!!
Hey many thanks, i'm currently doing a photography course and the assignment i'm working on is sports photography and this video was very useful to support the theory i've been reading. Thanks.
Thank you very much! It was really useful
Great Interview .. Interesting to see the U.S. sports photog issues are not that different to ours in Australia. Poorly lit stadiums are a constant challenge and no strobes allowed ! Great Vid
Thanks Mark, I was looking forward to this one, I saw all those Twitpics from your producer. Great to get some access. The remote camera stuff was new to me too, he must have a lot of images to discard after every game!
Boy I would love to have the equipment he has on hand.Very awesome shotsindeed.
my dream work.....cricket photography....
Very nice shots!!
That 400 f2.8 is an $11,000 lens, boys and girls...
you can get an old 300 2.8 without IS for around $1400 now and the Mark IV he uses is less than $1K. Older equipment now but still works as well as it did when this vid was made.
Nice video! I am a sports photographer and I’m always looking to up my game!!!
really good informative video. thanks guys.
thanks! :)
NO ADORAMA, noone beats DRTV!!!
Wow, he must not sleep! He must be the definition of multitasking.
شكرا لكم
jon WILLEY !!!
Those lens look like canons.
Amazing that you can get sharp images with 3200 ISO
so why pay for the 2.8?
And IS helps a lot
Just get the f4 and IS version of lenses
***** If you worked for any publication remotely important you would know that 90% of the shots used and paid for are off the field, coaches, fans, player before and after game, faces, emotions.
I know you're an amateur, but I will give you a tip, if you have IS and theres a moment that you want to capture even though its dark, you can still get that moment 100% usuable at 1/15
lol, but yeh IS "doesn't help" ok buddy sure. lmao
Not unusual for some sports photogs to tape the IS switch in the off position. But I bought IS lenses for the reason you stated. 2.8 is more versatile.
@@ianbunch9721 Sports photographers are taking shots of moving subjects. IS only helps with camera moving/shaking. It does nothing to help capture/freeze fast moving subjects. They are trying to get shutter speeds of 800, 1000, 1600, etc. and the only way to get that with a decent ISO in that low light setting is with a wider aperture like the 2.8. Go watch the behind the scenes video about Sports Illustrated photographers. 2.8's on basically every lens that it's available.
Nice Vid!
im surprised he didn't mention safety cables when using remotes high up
More detail needed for the settings if you want to reach a wider audience.
How do you manage the huge bulk of photos? It sounds like you would have well over 2,000 pictures from any given game day. Who has to (gets to) look thru them all to find the very few you actually use? Is there some one who maintains and creates a data base with who, what where and when on every photo? .... It scares me to even think about it. OR do you have someone who is brutal and deletes the number to a manageable viewable number like 25...
+Tom Chesney I have a recent website and I am working on developing my portfolio by choosing what I think are my best 9 to 20 photos of each sport but I keep the galleries I create by date so people can go in, search and see their own pictures. Sometimes it may include a 10 frame sequence. If there are a lot of similar photos of an individual I delete them. www.SportsPlus.Smugmug.com (a work in progress).
+Tom Chesney Love to be able to get photos of pro players but without the credentials for a press pass you're limited to a 6" lens in major stadiums. My 70-200 is 8"....
It is probably the only area in where the equipment is the most important.
Not a Nikon camera in sight! That's great!
because?
I am a Canon fan boy...hahaha
Heheheh ;)
+opjoipopikopp[pl[p[ nah bro nikon is way better
Oh Boy! Yet another pissing contest comment setting off Canon & Nikon partisans. Grow up & get over it. Both are great camera systems.
what do you mean by tape it down?
they put tape on the focusring, because vibrations may cause it to turn just a little bit, which throws off the focus
atopalian Yannick is correct, tae the focus ring because fans also may try to mess with it
John Willy?
These guys work their as*es off...
Very much. You want a wide aperture, and a body that'll shoot a high FPS. That = expensive.

Gear DOES matter in sports photography.

This guy is mustard.
Get an NFL photographer please or a MLS.
What don’t you like about your current mode of transportation? Is it paying for gas?
Is it sweating on a bike through traffic? Is it feeling exhausted after walking
for miles? Why not to get a advanced transporter, a self-balancing scooter,
your new tool. www.cozywow.com
