i see you don't close your other eye when you look at the viewfinder. is that a technique or something?

[renegomolj]

@Alexandahls, it's not technique but when I have to work for 10 hours it can become "disturbing"

[snowboarderrx]

football? but this looks like futball, or soccer

[renegomolj]

@snowboarderrx, in USA peope name it soccer but in Europe it's called footbal. In USA name football in for another sport :).

[renegomolj]

@alinthebest, Thanks. And you look pretty cute

[AWagnerPhotography]

Can you give us a step by step guide on preparation, shooting, editing of one of your sporting events?

Thanks!

Hey, What bag do you have with you? If you don't mind me asking.

[ajn1957]

Correct! What the Americans call football, people in Europe call wrestling!

@Xyb3rTeCh You suck at sports LOL

You must be living in the 1980s if you think thats true, Nikon has caught up with Canon, they're pretty much on par, maybe Nikon slightly better

[marconico]

@marconico plays not plat lol. saying that, thats probaly another girly thing you americanscall a sport

[marconico]

@Semprasectum stfu cockucker, the whole world plats football, american sports are shit and all taken from 'girly' sports. no american sport requires real skill, using your hands is a piece of piss!

[Xyb3rTeCh]

[crazyasspusshole]

@M4riusBstr4nd it takes less then 1 minute to convert a raw image to jpeg or tiff and in this day and age quality is everything

[sidkid2]

@M4riusBstr4nd I agree that when shooting a massive number of pictures, RAW isn't practical. Shooting JPEG when you know you're going to have your finger on the trigger most of the time is a better idea.

P.S-I use RAW for everyday shooting. Jared Polin drilled that into me. :P
