Secrets of action photography
Capturing a moving object in the way you want to is not easy and you need to understand what to set on the camera and what lenses are best to use in order to produce the desired result.
Different subjects need different techniques and this is one area of photography where it is easier to achive good results dependent on the money spent on the camera body. It is, however, possible to use all digital EOS models for action photography and we fully explain the differences and the techniques required for each individual model.
This event is equally applicable to those doing sports photography as to those capturing wildlife on the move. We also look at some simple post production techniques appropriate for these types of images.
