Well, with three 12yr olds in sports I will never run out of things to shoot.
Here are a couple of shots of my boys ( far right and farleft)from the start of their Cross Country meet. Funny thing, I was was 20yds away with the sun at my back, set the camera to AV mode and it would not lock in focus. The lens just kept hunting, so I changed to sports mode. I have never used this mode before. Thanks for looking. btrips |

I was in Av, Ai servo mode, center point right on their jersey when lens just kept hunting. They were ready to start so I flipped over to sports mode. Thanks btrips |

In that case not totally sure, I think the only difference in sports mode is that it activates all focus points. I would have thought there was enough contrast for the camera to have focused with the centre focus point as there is the white and red...... hmmmmm anyone else think why it might have been hunting?

jobeye,
I was using a Sigma 70-200 2.8 (trying to use Av mode) Never had that happen. I had center point right on nad the lens just kep t hunting. X-Country is boring to shoot, this was my first try. I can see you have to really get creative. Anyway, if my boys are doing it I am gonna shoot it. Thanks btrips |
