      You are very welcome Jennifer. Chaek out my goalkeeper shot on Insta (see link), not many people shoot from this angle, but I love it.

    Great video. The same method I tried for capturing birds. Really happy that I did correct one that you described.
    Initialy I was manual mode. But very hard to handle.
    Later I changed ISO settings to Auto ISO. Just keep adjusting my shutter only.
    Another great video. Thanks for making this video sir.

    Awesome!
    Straight to the point!
    Every video that you produce is easy to follow + understand - I now never follow anyone else's video's because you are the master Paul.
    After watching your video(s), I finally got around to taking moving subjects with your sugested camera settings on my Nikon D5000.
    Virtually every shot that I took (141) turned out almost perfect with very little editing in PS.
    Keep-up the good work Paul.
    Many thanks for sharing!

    I think you Rock, I just bought a Canon rebel T7 and had no idea how to use it, I had looked at other videos and they talk so fast and they move their fingers in the camera so fast I will start keeping up with them. You make this look easy in your comfortable in your reach out to your customer and you know how to show the camera and you are patient you’re my kind of teacher I liked your style. Great work! Hopefully I will be taking wildlife pictures and of my dogs and so forth someday I’ll be good as youWith your help. God bless

    Very good update on your previous video about shooting moving objects 👍
    Luckily one of my tripod legs unscrews to make a monopod; haven't found use for it yet but I bet it'll come in handy.
    Great tips! I hope to try them out later this year during some local sports activities :D

    Since I upgraded my camera to that of one that is a point & shoot with capabilities of a DSLR, I can better quality sports photos.
    I am sports photographer, albeit motor racing. These tips are going to help me with fine tuning the were & vastly improve my photos. I was easily able to apply the Nikon settings on mine.
    If you have any tips on tweaking for motor racing, I certainly would be appreciative.
    Watching these videos is like sitting in a classroom. Very educational.
