No problem getting clear shots using 1/500th or 1/640th? I will need to try that... I was using 1D M4 the other day in a gym and had the shutter set at 1/1000th and the ISO at 12,800... too much noise. I went down to 1/800th and that let me get away with 3200 and 6400 which was a lot better. I thought at 500/650 I'd get too many blurry images. I was using a 70-200 f2.8 wide open... great video!!

@RGN1970 It depends on the sport, but usually at 1/500th or so, you'll only get motion blur when people are flailing their arms or legs, and when you're so close in that you can see the detail. A wide shot at 1/500th looks pretty good.

Thanks, I mainly shoot wakeboarding and I never go much slower than 1/1000th when shooting from a boat. Thanks for the tip and keep the videos coming. Good stuff. This one was very interesting!

Just wondering, what do you set your aperture to for this kind of sport photography?

@JJtheJaxartosaurus for handheld, I usually shoot around 2.8, but for remotes, I bump up the aperture and go for at least 4 or 5, maybe 5.6 if the light allows. The idea is that the remotes can't autofocus, so you have to prefocus to a sweet spot, and make it as big a sweet spot as possible by raising the aperture.
