[ttheduck]

Hi everyone,
Horseracing day out coming up, I was hoping someone
could give me some advice on camera settings for photo's
of the action on course and portrait photography in the paddock.
i have done this type of photography before useing verious settings
and getting verious results but none that im happy with, greatfull
for any input.

Shuter speed of 1/1000 upwards is needed really - pan with the action and get some slightly different shots if you can
