LOL!!

thanks for the advice. Looking at my set up i was on a speed of 1/160 and an aperature of 5.6 but they just dont look as crisp as your shots. i bought a fuji finepix s602 a little while ago so have the advantage of not having to pay for film or processing. i will try the 3 continuos shooting next time at an event. i think i may be focusing wrong. i pick a point on the track and focus on it but when i release the shutter im not looking at the point i focussed on, if that makes sense

will try to post some pictures again............

LM SPS, they look pretty good to my untrained eye.

[Chef]

Huurah , no more a newbie.


The photos look good to me. Bearing in mind you are at least 25 metres away, at a height of 15 metres up, you are doing well .rick and Dave have brown nose passes so get the shots nearer , flatter , so to speak .

Have you tried the P&O idea yet , thats got to have some ground in it..

Morgan looks good though

Great pics guys, and thanks for the tips, I'll try some manual shutter speed on my Canon - I'll been lazy to date and use full auto (except on the focus at times)

Auto settings in a camera is like a car with an auto box - you don't choose how or when to make something happen.   Unless you are talking expensive stuff, bear in mind that auto settings are not optimised for high-speed sports photography, but for mr average to take holiday pictures.   I've found that digital cameras are great from a point of view of not wasting film, but the great difficulty with many is the shutter delay - i.e. when the screen goes black for a couple of seconds and you don't know when the shutter is actually going to open in that time - at least with a manual camera, the shutter clicks when you press the button!
