This is a good read and if you are thinking about another camera or changing camera might also provide some useful pointers.

An interesting piece, although I have to say my eyes glazed over a few times...

For the majority of leisure photographers mirrorless is probably pretty well capable now. I find it difficult to believe anyone can time the taking of an image to a 250th of a second consistently.

It's very important with sport, catching the action at the zenith, a bowler releasing a ball, a batsman striking the ball etc, I guess it's partly knack and experience but a large spade of luck must come into it too. Rapid exposures can't begin to do the trick. The image of a racing car doing well over 100mph I took at Rockingham which is (almost) smack in the middle of the word ROCKINGHAM was the only one of about 40 exposures made at 10/11? fps which achieved what I wanted.



I suppose I could have cheated and used Ps? :lol:

Been a bit distracted... There are too many pix to count with the Rockingham background. This was the nearest to what you described JK.



Not the best car to pick... A bit battered although I think the drivers like the signs of close encounters, sort of proves they are trying, I think.

This car has the wrong front wheel too, they should be black all round, silver denotes a wet tyre wheel for this team, but they had run out of black wheels.

You would do better retyping the lettering, blurring it and superimposing on the original image, having wiped out the original lettering.
:sssshh:
