Hi guys I could use a little advice.
I have been asked if i can shoot sports tommorrow for my uni newspaper I could be shooting one or more of: Football, Rugby, Hockey and Tennis. Which I don't know, and whether they are inside or out i don't know (assuming out for rugby at least) Though they all should be during the afternoon early enough for light to not be an issue (12 or 2 O'clock start).
I intend to be using my 450d and a 80-200 f2.8 L (arrived today so not had much practice yet). I also have the kit 18-55 f3.5-5.6 IS, a canon 50mm f1.8, a tamron 70-300 f4-5.6 and a canon 35-105 f3.5-4.5.
I have a speedlight 430exII and PT-04 triggers along with a tripod as well.
What tips can you give me, I know to keep the shutters high and the apertures low to freeze action and give background separation and that a 450d gets real noisy at high iso.
The photo's are only for the uni paper but i would like to make them as professional as possible (I would like to begin making a little money on the side and this would be useful in a portfolio).
Any post processing tips would be appreciated (I have cs4) as well as advice on etiquette ect.
Cheers David
