    I do have one question…for youth outdoor sports what setting would you use for the “quality” of the pictures on the Canon EOS Rebel?

      Hasina Swann i am sony user and had 1 job in sports this weekend. I rented 6d in the end (i have canon 70-200 2.8 at home) since i was afraid light will not be sufficient, so I didn’t follow those direct instructions, but similar. It worked great and i am very happy with results.:) 650d would be good enough probably as far as high iso, idk about autofocus.. i was shooting indoor swimming kids btw.. 6d central point can focus in quite a bit lower light compared to 650d and is probably faster too, i don’t really know. Swimming pool was quite bright so i can crop heavily and still have solid quality. Good luck!:)

    Excellent advice!. Can you tell me which focus point setting to use?. I have the Canon 800D.
    I was taking photos of Killer Whales yesterday using P Mode but the Auto Focus points were struggling with the sea so when the Orcas surfaced(they were killing a seal) no matter how many times I tried re-focusing most of the Orca pics came out blurred.
    I think I'd need a single point focus point setting but I'm not sure which one.
    Or should I have had a faster shutter speed but with the 45 point AF zone?.
    Thanks :)

    This was very helpful for me as a new photographer shooting Little League baseball. I have found that as it gets dark in our evening games my pictures are very dark at these settings. Although they are perfect and beautiful until the sun goes down. What are your settings and how do you adjust as the sun goes down but there are lights?

    Hi, love your videos! Should have watched YEARS ago when I got the Cannon Rebel T3i. Anyway, I am now shooting, mostly daylight soccer games. I followed your video to go to TV and set the shutter speed to like 1/1000 for soccer games. But, when I put the dial to sports mode, it seems to go back to 1/200 or 1/400. How do I get the shutter speed to stay at 1/1000? Do I shoot the game in sports mode or TV? So confused. I can't see where to have the dial at sports mode and change the shutter speed from there. A lot of the pictures are turning out blurry. Thank you

      at 0:42 look at his top right, ISO is yours on auto?. if yours is on auto and its dark, then reduce your shutter speed from 1/1000 to 1/500. that should help. if it doesnt help much then get another lens like the 70-200 f2.8
