Hi,
Just wondering when the experienced Sports Shooters here are capturing their action images if they try to frame their images well at the point of capture (eg. get it right in camera) or if they aim for the catching the action first and then tightening up the composition afterwards by cropping the image in post to suit their needs?
I had my first go at rugby over the weekend and was caught out a few times by trying to frame properly in camera only for the subject to move in a way I didn't anticipate and I end up with a player a foot missing (for example).
So is it better in the heat of the action to frame more loosely and then crop (between 25 to 50%) into the image afterwards?
I guess also as you get used to it shooting games you can better anticipate the action. Anyway I would be interested to hear the thoughts of the seasoned togs here.
