Jumping in the air with the 1 D mark 4

  every body i was out shooting in the weekend and i took the kids down to out local BMX track .
and i happen to come across these young guys jumping the jumps  on the track. So i ask them to stage some for me . I use the 70-200 mm canon 2.8 f  L and i told the camera to shot in AV and made the shutter
speed not to come below 1000 th of a sec and put the ISO in Auto .

                                      
                                      Canon 1 d mark 4  - 1000 sec - F- stop 7.1 - ISO  200




This was shot at 200mm and i was standing back watching them come down the track having heaps of fun!!

World cup Rugby 2011 Fire works

Hi all here is video of the fire works of the night. we got to our spot at 2.00 pm and 4 other photographers were there before us and we all waited until 8.00 pm when the fire work started.

          Video was use by the 1 d mark 4 with the 24-70 2.8 f


This is a picture of the night

                                 Canon 1 d mark 4  setting  Bulb 6 sec,  F 8 , ISO 125

                                                Nikon D3X  Bulb 8 sec , F 8 , ISO 100


The trick is to have a great trip pod using low ISO and timing is very important .
Always use a cable release and use bulb to bring light into your picture .
F- Stop should be about  F-8 to F- 11

                                         Canon 1 d mark 4  setting  Bulb 6 sec,  F 8 , ISO 125   

Thanks every one from the team of www.sharpphotography.co.nz
