Thanks for all the tips! I don't own a printer, can you suggest a reliable printing company that does good work? Thanks! Anne

Awesome work, very informative!

Al Servo makes the best pizza ;-) But thanks, fine tuning case numbers is science.

Jon - this is so incredibly informative and appreciated. Thanks for posting this. I recently purchased an R3 and am getting back into sports photography - I have SO MANY questions. This video went a long way towards getting me more acquainted and comfortable. I do not want to reinvent the wheel...seeking best and concise advice from those that have paved the way. thank you again

Thanks for doing this. These are the challenges and choices we battle through when trying to photograph sports. Seeing your real world examples, and hearing you talk through the opportunities you're trying to capitalize on in a given situation is very helpful. You, talking through the battles and opportunities we're all struggling with is priceless. It also gives me a realistic picture of what I can and can't expect out of this camera I just ordered. I also appreciate your logical steps through the options we might apply, including messing with the cases. The summary slides are very helpful. (Apparently the R3 allows us to save our settings to a card as we go along, which could be helpful in building up a good combination.) I was a little surprised, maybe even disappointed, that you said normal, single point focus is still your favorite option. Maintaining focus during the rapid changes in volleyball, using a 5D-mkIV, is what got me looking for a camera with more AF tools. Presumably, the R3 is still a meaningful step up given what people say. And, as one of your other viewers said: high speed action under so-so lighting leaves you pushing the boundaries of high ISO. The R3 definitely delivers on that, and that was the main thing I was trying to solve. "Sharpness" is locked in a dance between AF, shutter speed, and ISO-noise and I knew I had to do more to solve the ISO part. Thanks so much for including several sports. Each present their own challenges and you picked the right three. I don't know about you, but I find volleyball to be the most challenging because of indoor lighting combined with a very rapidly changing location of focus. Be well!

Your football games pics would've been much easier with the EF 100-400mm MKII, the difference between the two is night and day.

Glad you pointed out ear plugs! Such a simple thing that makes a big difference.

Just wondering what size are you wearing?

Very nice video, I've had an r3 for a bit and am still struggling with eye af / control. As to the quarterback / receiver quandary, what I normally do is get a handful of good QB photos first, the classic arm back, etc. After that I don't really need anymore of those. From there on I typically am 30-40 yards upfield, and as a play starts I am not looking through the viewfinder but over it at the QB to see, if it's a pass play, where he's looking. Once his arm goes back, I then look downfield and see what receiver he's going to, point the camera that way and pick up the receiver / defender via autofocus. Seems to work better that way for me. At least for the longer pass plays, for the shorter routes not so much.

I had this product for a few days. Then I returned it because the results were terrible. No matter what I did I had a green tint, I spoke to datacolor support and they just wasted my time, with two days of dumb questions without actually even offering a solution. I made a complaint and the service told me that they compared it with another one and there were no deviations, this leads me to think that this model is simply a total failure. I had no problem with previous model but yes it is no longer supported. Now I'm using Xrite Display pro and I think it is way better than the spyder...

How do you like using the ozark chair for outdoor sports photography? Does it recline too much?

Welcome to Houston. Well, not so much of a warm welcome. What kinds of sports events are your shooting? I live in the area and shoot youth sports.

Excellent video as usual. I have a chair like your red one. I use it to shoot wrestling and occasionally basketball for a college I shoot for. The students call it my geriatric chair. But I don't care, it saves my back. Also, for soccer, check out the Walk Stool. It's awesome!

What is the filter size on this lens?

Really fantastic guide, full of super useful tips. Thanks so much!

Thanks JOn. in case you're talking with others. AI Servo is pronounce "A" "Eye" servo , as in artificial inteligence.

I just bought the R3 and had been getting poor results. Just your tips in the first 5 minutes helped me immensely!

Loved the sequences and explanation of what you were doing. I primarily film video of volleyball and rugby, but looking at this camera to film bursts that can be used as both photos and video.

I have my AF-On button set to be my eye tracking autofocus and my shutter release button set to be my regular single point or expanded point autofocus. This way I can instantly switch between the two of them. Often times, I'll hit the AF-On button to track a player's eye, but if the camera detects the wrong player, I can instantly switch to the correct player with my single point AF by pressing the shutter release half-way. Works really well.

You lost me with the first 2 pictures but the rest were awesome

This is probably one of the cooler things I’ve seen today. Keep up the good work

Interesting stuff listening as a Nikon Z9 user

Best for phones

Great video I just got myself the Canon R6 ll which is a mini r3

How high did your iso get on these shots?

who watches woman basketball 💀

crowds are massive

Incredibly helpful. Thank you. I really need to do some more experimentation.

For that video you should have ad least thousand times more "likes". Very , very helpful vid. Cheers

I have also R3, you refer to AL Servo mode, can’t seem to find in manual or on camera. Can you help?

So helpful thank you can you make a video on your shutter speed or how you deliver the photos

Just bought the XL , checked the labels they all say XL , but pretty small . I know Chinese are maybe smaller than Europeans, but if these ere EXTRA large , I need XXL 😮

Excellent, in-depth video. I think it's probably the best one on UA-cam about the R3. It's my first season of basketball, football, and volleyball shooting with a pair of these cameras and it's great to see how another pro is using the camera and the results of using different AF techniques. This video is much appreciated. Subscribed.

Great and detailed video, thanks buddy

is this a 70-200mm?

god how useful this video is!!! thanks man, i watched whole video and i found that I knew about camera. please make more useful contents like this about alphabetic expressions of photography and Video camera. thanks a lot, subscribed

Wish I had a R3 to experiment. Good video.

Always brings a smile to my face when Canon users speak about Al Servo (Al, as in someones first name), when it's actually AI Servo, as in Artificial Intelligence. 🙂

Can it be used for videos.

Sorry this happened to you. My rule in Houston is never to leave any valuable item where it can be seen. My car has a traditional trunk, so that's where my gear resides. I had a Panasonic GH2 and Nikon D40 stolen from the trunk of the car in the circular driveway in front of the house. They missed the two Hasselblads. In a public place like a mall, hiding the stuff usually works.

Can we lock the zips using TSA approved number locks?

Hello Jon, I know this video is a few years old, but I just wanted to thank you. I just found this on your channel and it answered all the questions I had regarding the fixing plate on my new tripod. I searched everywhere and to find your explanation was fantastic. Thank you again.

very helpful, thanks

Great video, do you need book hostels prior? Or can you just show up?

Super cool Jonathan!!👏🏼👏🏼

Hi just saw this video. I have this tripod and i'm looking for an l-bracket for the purpose of doing vertical shots but i'm failing to see how and l-bracket can actually be attached to this tripod. Do you have any advice on this?

Hi I’m searching for an answer I’m looking for an L bracket that I can attach something to the side like the manfrotto phone holder any ideas
