skiing/snowboarding photography[edit]
Woops...sorry about that!!
I meant to post:
I have never done any skiing/snowboarding photography before and my friend has asked me to photograph him in a professional skiing competition he is taking part in tomorrow. He will be doing jumps, rails, etc.
My questions are:
1. What should I set my metering mode at? multi-segment, center weighted, or spot???
2. Should I set my auto focus mode to continuous AF since i will want it to keep focusing as I am shooting??
3. Should I use a wide angle lense of my 70-200 zoom lens?
4. Is there anything specific I need to adjust on my camera? I understand I need a fast shutter speed for still shots, and I know how to pan.
5. Any other tips or hints would be perfect!!!
Thank you very much
