Nice sequence from my granddaughter's soccer match

Chris Summers · May 12, 2023

While I feel the R7 has a few drawbacks I do love the 15 fps burst mode for recording action. Got some good shots of my granddaughter and one of her teammates kicking the ball. I usually shoot with my RF 70-200mm f/4 but have been trying out the Tamron 18-400mm lens that I got through an insurance claim for the one I had that got sand in it at the beach. I like the extra reach at 400mm but it does sometime lag a bit on acquiring focus compared to the Canon lens. Sunset is later these days so the Tamron being a bit darker as far as the aperture has not been a problem.

Awesome! Nice sequence! The Tamron did a great job. Your granddaughter and her teammate must be thrilled to get these action shots.

Yes, I actually try to get shots of everyone on the team when on the field and then after editing I post them to an online album I share. All her teammates and their families are free to download them, I get a lot of thanks from them as well as the coaches. I figure most will rarely get professional style shots of them in action, it's a lot of fun just to share with them.

Greats shots! As someone with knee injuries, your detailed sequence makes me quite envious.

Great set, and it clearly shows all of the leg action required to move the ball. It is reminiscent of the Eadweard Muybridge studies of motion.

Very nice images, thanks for sharing with us, and an even bigger thanks for sharing them with the other players and their families. That's what it's all about.
