Some great tips there, couldn’t agree more with knowing your gear inside out. After 15+ years of shooting, I would summarize it to, know your sport and equipment, don’t be afraid to think outside the box. Like an athlete, go low, go high, in tight, out wide. Think how you best combine the athlete, the sport/equipment and the environment they are in, all into one shot. Their body position is one of the most important aspects to creating a dynamic shot. Try to think like the athlete and be a step ahead of them and be ready for that killer shot. And most importantly have fun and it’s ok to spray and pray sometimes.
If you want to go shot some fun downhill mountain biking this summer drop me message.

Just watched this even as a sports photographer 1 1/2 years in, it's a crazy genre to be involved in, but I love it! Sub'd and will watch more.

Newbie here- mom wanting to move up into the youth sports photography as our kids play soccer, rugby and wrestles. Learning basic and what I’ve learned and correct me if I’m wrong is go mirrorless and a shutter peed of at least 10fps along with full frame? I am looking at canon kits with the potential of buying an additional lens. I would like to stay around $1000- A few I have looked at are : Rebel T7 not mirrorless though, Canon R50 or R10 idk!! I am looking at the kits etc. I would also like to take close ups for team photos etc.

What lenses do you suggest for sailing and regatta photography if i shoot the ships from a boat?

[stolensoul]

Would you recommend auto focus or manual for sport’s photography?

I mostly shot weddings and concerts, but never sports.... if I use a 1DX-i and a 70-200 2.8 for sports, do you recomend shooting with a 2x extender, or is it better to shoot clean lens and crop instead do you think?

I just shot a floorball event yesterday bro

[matyoum]

for sports photography, do you recommend using aps-c or full frame camera?

[DrSarge]

70-200 would be ok for basketball, but for football or something like swimming that’s not enough reach for me 😅

Sorry Pal. Most people just starting off are reviewing these videos to pick up some tips on shooting sports. Mostly for their kids sports. They not going to use two cameras or carry a second camera with them.

So in new to this...if i want to shoot photos for a football game do i just walk on the field or do i need to have permission?
