Wet Weather Shooting…
-
For some reason the worse the weather is the more I love shooting in it. This is from last Sunday week and was taken just as the rain started turning into sleet. Light was rotten, but you work with what you have. F4, 1/1000, ISO 3200.
The rain certainly makes this shot, would love to see a close-up action shot with the rain. Maybe I’ll give it a go sometime but unlike you I hate the rain. :D :wink:
Dave.
ISO is one of those things that people are scared to push. Sometimes you have to push it and accept a bit of noise. This shot is F2.8, 1/800 and ISO12800. The quality is more than acceptable for newspapers and printing up to say, A4.
Very nice shot Maurice. Have shot a fair bit in the rain but have pretty much stopped as it eventually killed my
last camera :). Probably my fault tbh.Out of interest how are you sharpening these images? I only take photos for our local soccer club but am often not that happen
with my simple smart sharpen routine :)thanks
Mark – I’m a Canon shooter and shoot my sports in RAW. I have my workflow down to a tee now and it doesn’t take much longer this way than shooting jpeg’s, plus I get a better image (imho!) I’ve played around with Lightroom, Adobe Camera RAW but have always come back to Canon’s DPP product. It seems to get better images from .cr2 files than Lightroom… Also the new version, DPP 4.0 has pretty much all the functionality of LR built in, is free, and produces great images. The image of the hurler was WB corrected, sharpened to 7 and had NR pushed to 5. Hopefully that helps…
