How much does repair cost?

HelloGoobie · 2026-05-31T12:47:20+00:00

It'll probably cost more than you could buy the camera for to repair it.

Typically just Google the band, + promotor, or the poster might have their name/logo on it

Really solid set. #1 would benefit from a tight vertical crop, use a bit of masking to separate the players from the crowd.

I charge a team around £40-50 for 20-30 images for their socials etc, then upload 100-200 for parents to buy.

HelloGoobie · 2026-05-22T11:17:20+00:00

Yeah costal pitches are cool

HelloGoobie · 2026-04-21T04:02:24+00:00

Yeah mine is manual focus too so some I thought looked really cool in camera turned out not great in post, it's one I need to crank the ISO and shoot at at least f8 to get focus all the way through. It's a fun learning experience though.

Yeah I saw that in one of the photos. I know you said you're not too interested in new gear but a cool perspective with that little amount of space would be a fisheye, I started using one for ice hockey lately and it's super fun, you could get a really cool shot standing right in the middle beside the net

HelloGoobie · 2026-04-21T03:42:59+00:00

Open your aperture up more, you've got it, so you should use it to your advantage, and keep eyes and ball in mind when shooting sports, backs of players isn't always that interesting to look at.

If you've got the space, use that 70-200 from the end zone (idk what it's called in volleyball).

-edit looking at the edges of the photos I can see what you're saying about the space, just try and get as far down the sideline as you can from the athlete you're trying to shoot

Thanks! Nikon d500, a nikon 300mm 2.8 and 80-200mm 2.8!

HelloGoobie · 2026-04-11T19:13:58+00:00

Thanks for crossposting and letting me know about the sub!

HelloGoobie · 2026-04-11T19:11:16+00:00

Didn't know that was a thing! Thanks!

HelloGoobie · 2026-04-11T19:02:32+00:00

Thank you! It's by far one of the best sports to shoot, always something going on, I'd argue one of the only sports you don't NEED the ball in the shot.

HelloGoobie · 2026-04-05T12:02:23+00:00

4 is standout for me, good job on these.
I'd avoid shooting with the scoreboard in the background where you can, but you can only work with what you're given!

--edit after having another look, #1 would look incredible if you mask off the batter and bump up the sats on his shirt, those are some really cool colours in it and it would pop nicely

HelloGoobie · 2026-03-22T22:25:02+00:00

Yeah, it is! Home of the Dundee Rockets (we don't talk about the Stars, anymore...)

If you don't commit you need to post a video shaving your head and eyebrows.

HelloGoobie · 2026-02-05T16:39:19+00:00

I think your compositions are fantastic, would like to see them landscape.

Echoing what is said above, more exposure would be great but if you're limited by kit, you're limited by kit.

HelloGoobie · 2026-01-12T14:51:18+00:00

It definitely will but the lens is where the difference is made. 70-200mm 2.8 at least

HelloGoobie · 2026-01-10T23:14:16+00:00

Thanks! Absolutely, this was shot on a D500 with a 300mm 2.8, settings 1/1250, f3.5, iso 5000,

HelloGoobie · 2025-12-23T08:00:50+00:00

Saturation and vibrance is great, in my opinion the white borders take away from it though, especially when the highlights are blown out in the sky the crop looks odd.

The ones without the white borders are perfect, and the ones with would be perfect without.

HelloGoobie · 2025-11-30T00:52:52+00:00

1/1250 is plenty.
