Shooting Football

[MTaylor]

Hi all,

Tomorrow I am off to watch my local team play and I'm taking my Lumix fz150 bridge superzoom. I have never shot any fast moving sports before and I'm not too experienced with my Lumix yet.

Could someone possibly give me some pointers on what settings to use etc? I did search the forum but my app is playing up so couldn't find anything.

Many thanks,

Matt

If you can,get it in shutter priority and start off about 1/250 and try it from there. If it's too dark or if there's any motion blur adjust the shutter speed up or down to suit. Just seen when this was posted so this might not of been in time but it'll be worth bearing in mind for another time.

100% wrong advice anyway :bang:
