You know I have recently been receiving some requests for help with fast action shots indoors. I remember when I was also frustrated at not being able to get a response from professional photographers on this situation. They always so elusive to how they conducted themselves on the field and what they did to achieve a particular effect.
So now I will tell you about how to master this. Do you want the good or the bad news first?
Okay good news is that possible. The bad news is that you do not need a good camera with manual controls to do so. But since you already bought the ebook I am assuming you have either a point and shoot camera or a DSLR. Either way, it's better than a cheap camera that does nothing.
The secret is this: drawings quick action are blurred because it is usually because they are taken in low light level, as an indoor basketball arena, for example. What happens is that the camera if left on auto, automatically adjusts to low light levels, which means a slower shutter speed. A shutter speed slow occurs the camera needs a time to go into as much light as possible because this low level of light. It is very good from the point of view of the cameras, but in fact is annoying and disappointing.
What can you do about it?
Well firstly, increase that shutter speed. You may notice an increase digital noise, but that will only be slight so do not worry about it. After all it is probably worth that gold "of photographs that are trying to achieve.
It will be difficult to get more light into the camera, because usually you'll be too far away for the flash to work appropriately anyway. This is why the seal is the first consideration.
Something that might help track is as follows: Take one – take the shutter to certain speed, shot 2 – increase the shutter speed one notch, shot 3 then increase again, and so on. If you have the patience and inclination, write in a notebook exactly what shutter speed shot was less, which was shot 2, etc. So, seeing the images on the computer later that night must be configured to write to let you know what shutter speed worked better. Can then be applied to other situations as well.
So relax and work with what you have. Increasing the shutter speed or increase the light.
Best,
Amy Renfrey
