How to choose the best APERTURE for sports videos

You got this all wrong 😂

On a 400 mm or 600 mm I’d even go as high as f8 or f9

What ND filters do you have on the set up pictured in the Video?

Great video my friend 👍🏻 I filmed at our german 🏀 Top Four with the small ZVE1 mostly with the Tamron 50-400 mm f4 😅

Enjoy your content!

Always a pleasure to learn something useful from you. The way you explain everything is second to none!

You really trying to get me to buy that Portkeys monitor. screen looks WAY nicer than my Ninja V.

How i get F4 on 2.8 lens

More great educational stuff!! Helped me a lot as a total amateur!!

Really good argument for the choose of F4 instead of 2.8 in sports team !
Thanks for every tip in this channel !

I'm so far out of my league and frustrated. Coming from cell phone cam/vid only to a new Canon Eos R8 with a 55-200 lens, I have no clue what I'm doing.
I've been shooting my son's 🏀 games on Auto. At times, I get good footage. I have to find and sign up for some classes. I have no idea what I'm doing😢

Are u saying that a lens with constant F2.8 would not be good for indoor basketball if i dont want anything blurred and F4 or higher would be better from a focus perspective, but could there be a trade off that it there may not be enough light for indoor video?

Thanks for the tip boss !! Will try this next Saturday !!
Keep going ! Merci beaucoup !

I agree, I use between 4 and 5.6 depending on camera and conditions.

What aperture would you recommend for the Sony ZV E-10 for basketball?

Yo. I was out shooting a football (soccer) match last week on my A7siii. I was shooting around f5 and f8 because I was afraid not get the players in focus. Especially if I ball was in the middle of the field, but there were players closer to me the camera had a tendency to focus on them. How do you control your focus shooting like this? Whats your focus settings and mode? Also I noticed on some of your vids your are using a shutter speed a little over the 180 degree rule. Is that intentional to limit the motion blur for more sharper footage?

Thank you!!! I've got a game to shoot today. I really appreciate professionals like yourself that share information. This helped me

Do you shot auto focus on sports or manual

Excellent tutorial thanks for sharing your knowledge

What's your go-to aperture?
