What camera settings to use for sports photography? It's a good question and one that you will need an answer for if you're a beginner in sports photography.
Action sports photography settings are all about speed. How fast should be your shutter speed be for sports? Well, as I'll cover in this video, I'd aim for at least 1/1000.
This video will cover the best settings for sports photography, giving you the low-down on why we use the settings we do as well as some of my own experience and examples.

very nice beginners overview of settings for sports/action photography, one note you mentioned "AL" Servo mode several times with Canon it is actually "Ai" Servo short for "artificial intelligence continuous (servo) auto focus mode".

Good video again, would be interested in your views on case modes. I usually use 1 or 4 for footy, but to be honest, I haven't really noticed any real difference. Would like to hear your opinions on them. By the way Rob Sambles was crucified in a funny way, on his channel for saying AL SERVO, it's actually AI SERVO. Not trying to be a smart a**e.

Thank you for the tips I use av mode and up the ISO to 1600 f9 and f10 used.. I started photography of rugby a month back.. I have found it rather difficult to taking pictures of cricket.. But it's definitely challenging my learning experience

Hi Samuel. Thanks for watching and for the comment. I agree, cricket can be tough, you definitely need some good length on your lens to be able to get some good action shots of the batsmen, etc. Keep getting out and shooting, and enjoy!

This will be very helpful thank you. I take photos of my 4 boys playing soccer (football) and there is quite a difference sometimes between games. Most on the pitch during daylight but then the high school games under the lights at night. What settings would you recommend for under the stadium lights?
@Talru
@Talru 9 ай бұрын
HI there, thank you for watching and I hope the photography is going well. I think for shooting under lights, it will take a little experimenting depending how good the lights are. Maybe start with a 1/1000 shutter, f2.8 if your lens allows (otherwise the lowest possible) and then use the ISO to get the correct exposure. Obviously the higher the ISO goes, the more noise is introduced into the image, so if the images are really dark it may be worth bringing the shutter down slightly. I have a video which may help here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jqifgJBh27usqXk.html&lc=UgyRZArNtacdiwrFKVp4AaABAg Thank you for watching,

i have subbed i have a poor 480mm 1" bridge camera and i am strugglign to make it capture low light soccer match 1/200 SS wasn't always great, but it got me a few decent photos, but now i am forced to increase to 1/500 or just get away with a few decent images at 1/200 SS, my concern here however is that NOISE is so damn high, and hence i get less detailed images, so coming to think about it again, i may have to shoot at 1/200, because Noise is a BIGGER problem to me and picture detail from blurry images due to slower shutter i got two options now to mitigate or reduce the damn noise 1) I can set shadows to -5 and +5 for highlights 2) I can set noise reduction to +5 (maximum) and sharpness to +5 so can i set those two simultaneously to get lowest noise levels possible or should i stick to only one of them ? and which one ? thank you,

Hi , your video tutorial was pretty easy to understand . Thanks ! Would you please let me know how the burst will work on my not so fancy camera : Canon EOS Rebel T7 ? I cannot figure out the continuous shooting button ( for this camera 3f/second) as I noticed when I press the button the screen turns black and shoots 3 frames after 20 seconds or so 😂.. and when I select a single shot button on continuous shooting it just shoots 1 shot... 😅 I am new in this field and trying to get a few soccer pictures of my son playing the sport. Or should I just upgrade my camera ? Thank you for your time
@Talru
@Talru 9 ай бұрын
Hi Cristina, thanks for watching! While I'm not familiar with the Rebel T7, it sounds as tough there may be a countdown timer on or something? I think the same button that you set the continuous shooting with is also used to access the self-timer, so perhaps make sure that is off? Good luck with it, and with the photography!

The Exposure Triangle you used is wrong on the side of ISO but everything else is doing just fine !
@BrianKenyon
@BrianKenyon Жыл бұрын
For the exposure triangle shouldn’t it have less noise with a lower iso 100 and more noise with a higher 6400 iso? I think it’s reversed. Also the biggest frustration I have with all these recommendations of fifth 500+ shutter speed and low stop 2.8 is we are all forced to buy that painfully expensive white canon lens. I have had quite a lot of success capturing my sons basketball games with the 55-250mm with stabilization though a bit more grainy because the iso needs to be high because of the higher Gatos of the lens.

Yes, apologies, I made a mistake with the diagram. The Canon L series lenses are pretty expensive, it's good that you've had results with an alternative!

I’m just a mom that wants to take pics of her sons football games and get pics for parents. I have a Cannon Rebel T3i. These games are in the daylight. What shutter speed and iso do you recommend? My shutter speed goes up to 1/4000. Thanks for any help!!
@Talru
@Talru Жыл бұрын
Hey Nicole. Thanks for watching. If it's for action shots, I think the quicker the better. If you can aim for 1/1000 shutter and still have enough light to expose the image well, then I'd do that. It will freeze the action and make for a nice sharp image. Good luck!
@Talru
@Talru Жыл бұрын
Sorry, I didn't directly address the ISO part. If you're on full manual, I'd go 1/1000 shutter, as bigger aperture as your lens allows you (lower f number, f2.8 is ideal) and then use your ISO as required to expose the image. If you're shooting outside in daylight, you should be fine. You can also shoot on auto ISO - this allows you to set shutter and aperture and the camera will then select ISO for correct exposure

You want to get a lens that has an aperature of at least 2.8 for sports and indoor video. You need to let in as much light as you can. Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8L USM Autofocus Telephoto Zoom Lens or comparable lens from a third party manufacturer such as Sigma ot Tamron.

Can you not set f stop and shutter speed and go auto iso?
@Talru
@Talru Жыл бұрын
Hi Charles. You certainly can yes, that's a technique I use regularly when the pitch has dark shadows and bright areas contrasting against each other. The auto ISO option can help to make that a little easier to deal with, but can also be used in any scenario if you set your aperture and shutter first.

Hello how are you? Congratulations on the video, I just found it in a KZfaq search. Can you help me understand something? How can I, a Brazilian photographer, work as a freelancer in sporting events such as races, obstacle races, trail races, etc.? Is there any company that hires foreigners to work as freelancers? If yes, what do you need? My intention is to start at the beginning of 2024 at sporting events around the world. My dream is to be a sports photographer around the world covering this together with a team. It's a shame that here in Brazil we don't have much information about access in America and Europe. I thank you for your attention.

You say the higher the ISO, the more noise you'll get...which is what I know. But how come your Exposure triangle has: ISO 100 - more light/more noise, and ISO 6400 less light/more noise. I'm confused now.
