  • Skate Park

    So, panning isn't easy....I tried every lens I have and came to the conclusion that faster long glass is needed I'll also use the excuse of the skatepark being in a warehouse which was dimly lit and skaters are unpredictable and fairly slow so I'm at 1/30s on the second one and 1/20s on the last. No chance for flash as I was sitting 10 ft higher than the ramps

    It might be worth trying wireless flash with the main flash positioned within 8-10ft of the subject. Otherwise crank the iso up very high and denoise in PP.

      I didn't want a high SS as they were slow moving subjects. A little quicker maybe..flash was a no no - with loads of kids on scooters, boards and bmxs it would've been a recipe for disaster.

      Main object was to see how I coped with panning - and I shot with a p20 which is "slow" in terms of focus speed
