the tamron 70-300 usd is a fantastic lens :)

Well, he proves that when shooting sports there is no substitute for fps. That shutter was awesome. gotta look into the lens too.

Is this f4.5-6?? How are you getting such bright images 1/640 shutter speed? I have the canon 100-400 f4 on my Canon D7 and struggle to get enough light in at those speeds. Any tips people??

hi bruce benet

For a professional sports photographer, you aren't very good. No offence, but some of the tips were ridiculous and the motion shots weren't artistic or panning-style, they just looked dreadful.

This is awesome! the pics are gret, but the video is also perfect!

@vcbabis....actually, the 70-300 lens would make a better sports lens because the AF is much faster than the 70-200 F2.8. I am hoping that Tamron will be coming out with a new 70-200 F2.8 that has a faster AF, just like they did with the 70-300. I thought the video was great but him saying sports should be shot at 1/500 is a bit much, even his shots were blurred. 1/1000 would be a much better speed to start out with.
