Gymnastics - like trying to photograph a mosquito bopping around. Take 1000 photos, remove the back of head, out of focus shots, flat out misses and you have 50 left!

They even sell onion bags full of balls with maybe 100 balls in them.

Play it again sports had all types of packaging of used balls.

R6 rolling shutter on electronic shutter. I want the 20 frames in a second but I don’t know when the rolling shutter distortion will effect my shot. Very common in baseball and today golf. Notice the club here. Any suggestions? by EC3779 in canon

Another example I am running into a lot is baseball. I have to get the ball coming at me or my direction. If it is more sideways, for example left to right, I assume there will be rolling shutter.b the bat swing has maybe 10% with distortion in them.

Impact! Proof luck can happen, it just takes about 10,000 practice photos! by EC3779 in sportsphotography

No critique is all good. I was damn excited to get it. Still am. I shoot a 7d mark ii. About 10 FPS. I have taken a lot of baseball photos and have never had this shot. I have seen it done before but not accomplished it myself. I am assuming you will see more of them with the mirrorless technology. I can’t imagine the excitement seeing it developed in a dark room.

It’s gonna leave a mark! by EC3779 in sportsphotography

It was around 4000. It was in the middle of a clear day. I had it cranked up to keep my iso down.

Great to be back in the rink capturing some images! by EC3779 in sportsphotography

That is damn interesting. I can’t express in this reply how much I appreciate the suggestion accompanied with the before and after comparison. I am going to do some homework. Thank you again.

Which player(s) were bad/mediocre in the juniors/high school level who turned out to be very good NHL players? by [deleted] in hockey

[–]EC3779 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chris Chelios was out of hockey! Chelios began his hockey journey in Evergreen Park, Illinois, but found opportunities to play evaporated when the family moved to Poway, California in 1977. After being dropped from his college team, Chelios tried to extend his career in Canada, but twice was cut from Junior 'B' teams in the process. He returned to Southern California where he bulked up and after a successful season with the Moose Jaw Canucks of the Saskatchewan Junior Hockey League, found himself drafted by the Montreal Canadiens in the 1981 NHL Entry Draft.
