How to set your camera up for Sports Photography - Canon 1Dx set up for sport
Hi guys. In this video I run through how to set your camera up for Sports Photography and the camera settings I use for Sports Photography on my Canon 1Dx. We all use various different settings and methods, so it would be great to hear how you guys set up too, for ISO, Shutter speed, White Balance, Colours, Aperture, Focussing and Exposure.
As usual, leave any questions or comments below and I will reply as soon as I can.

Thanks for sharing these, Mark. Most interesting takeaway for me was your use of cloud AWB as a default setting. Another useful ‘reminder’ (to me anyway) was auto ISO. Looking forward to catching more videos.

I'm still fairly new to my 1DX Mark ii, purchased October of 2019. One thing that stood out to me from your video, I use auto ISO as well quite a bit, and have taken advantage of Min/Max ISO settings to help limit the cameras choices to still give me some control. But you used the "Set" button with the front dial to quickly change exposure compensation, that was cool. I am now setup that way, thanks!!!

@MarkKerton 4 жыл бұрын

Hi Trevor. Auto ISO is great for controlling the exposure with the set button and top wheel. Very occasionally I get caught out but on the whole I stick with this set up. Like you say, it's also greta for setting your min/max levels too. Thanks for sharing your thoughts Trevor.

I’ve shot quite a bit of baseball , and found back-button autofocus to be an amazing tool for that. In baseball, if you know the game, you can generally make an educated guess as to exactly where the most interesting play will be. If there are runners on first and second and a right-handed batter, I can be almost certain that a fly-out to left field will result in a runner sliding into third base, so I use back-button to pre-focus on third base and then don’t need to worry about the shutter button messing up my focus during the chaos of the play. It definitely took me a while to get used to, though

I'm thinking of upgrading to a 1DX (can't afford a new camera) so this is a very helpful video. Currently using a battered Canon 40D with a non-IS 70-200mm L lens, as I'm shooting grass roots football with no budget at all for a better body. I usually shoot in aperture priority mode in the sweet spot of the lens (f3.2 or 3.5) with auto ISO. This usually gives me more than enough shutter speed. On very bright days I lower the ISO. I cope, but would prefer more control. Can't get the hang of back button focusing or shooting manually, even though I know pros shoot sports manually.

I just picked up a used 1DX with low shutter count on it. My question is regarding how high ISO would you push this camera to if needed. I shoot high school sports for a media news group and when I am behind a football (American) endzone, there isn't any light so I struggle with trying to keep the shutter speed up high enough without getting too much shadowing. I my 5D M3 I have went up to 10,000/12,280 ISO without it looking to bad. I would also need faster shutter speeds indoors when shooting a volleyball big hitter, such a dynamic explosion with some of the top level hitters. Thank you for your help.

@MarkKerton 9 ай бұрын

You’ll see a huge difference with the 1Dx regarding ISO’s compared to the 5d2. It really can be pushed to its limits under the lights I love my 1Dx for that one reason👍🏻

@davidfeatherstone5078 4 жыл бұрын

Another Informative video. Do you use similar settings shooting at night games? I tend to shoot in jpeg format during the day and RAW at night. I can then sort out the noise in LR from shooting at high ISO’s with my 5D3. As you know, there are so many night games in non-league football due to fixture pile ups throughout the season, postponements because of the weather, water logged pitches etc., and most floodlights don’t have enough power to beam out to lower the ISO setting. The reason I invested in the 1DX2 was because of glowing reports about the noise levels and performance of this camera but yet to use it because of this pandemic.

@MarkKerton 4 жыл бұрын

Hi David. I tend to go down to f2.8 on both lenses and then set up accordingly. In the past, one game I remember shooting, I was down to 640th, a nightmare! The floodlights were so dim it was a real tester! Good idea on the raw at night👍🏻

I usually try and stick to 1250th-1600th if I can at f2.8 - f3.2 at iso 1600ish, depending on the flood lights of course. Hope that helps Jeff

It's a bit different, usually one hears sports photographers singing the praises of BBF, but he did mention he uses the star/asterisk button as focus lock, so when you think about it, he is still using a back button on the camera to control focusing in a manner he is used to and comfortable with. Similar goals, just a different way of doing it. Thought it was very interesting, and you can't argue with his results, so it definitely works for him.

Really interested to learn that you don't use BBF. I do, but have never been convinced that it makes me quicker or more accurate than using the shutter button alone.

Hi Nick. I do sometimes feel bit behind the times using the shutter button to focus! Just have struggled to convert myself round to it! I ought to have another go really!

I find a lot of new people think BBF is supposed to help improve your sharpness, that BBF is a better way to focus that actually improves IQ, but its not. Its just a different way to focus, it doesn't magically improve focus quality. What it does do, it gives users ability to work in AI Servo & Single Shot at same time without having to go into menu & change settings, which takes time and distracts from play. Imagine a corner kick, you are using middle focus point, you hit BBF to achieve focus, then let go because you want to recompose & follow the rule of thirds to give room to the left of the frame for ball to travel. You can do all this with BBF and not go into your menu to change from AI Servo to Single Shot. Leave your camera on AI Servo, when you dont want the camera to AF, release the bbf button, and boom, your in single shot mode without ever going into the menu. Mark mentioned he programmed his star/astrik button as focus lock, that's practically doing the same thing, just another method of doing it. Thanks for sharing Mark, great to hear your tips and camera settings, very much appreciated.

Thanks Trevor. And thanks for sharing how you set up. One reason for me starting this Chanel is for discussion and hearing about all the different methods we use. So really appreciate your input👍🏻
