An interesting piece, although I have to say my eyes glazed over a few times...

For the majority of leisure photographers mirrorless is probably pretty well capable now. I find it difficult to believe anyone can time the taking of an image to a 250th of a second consistently.

It's very important with sport, catching the action at the zenith, a bowler releasing a ball, a batsman striking the ball etc, I guess it's partly knack and experience but a large spade of luck must come into it too. Rapid exposures can't begin to do the trick. The image of a racing car doing well over 100mph I took at Rockingham which is (almost) smack in the middle of the word ROCKINGHAM was the only one of about 40 exposures made at 10/11? fps which achieved what I wanted.



I suppose I could have cheated and used Ps? :lol:
