Like to know if these guys are all shooting Auto ISO? During a game where the shadows are constantly changing, and I'm in auto ISO my exposures are all over the place.
Just heard that SI has big layoffs yesterday….hope these people survive 🙏.
17-35
Thanks for Memory Lane. Witnessing this happening in 2000… having people go soup for us… to the start of the digital where you're handing off cards (hard drives)… to wifi transmission… it's just amazing.
"You need something like a 500 2.8f" OK that doesn't exist
This is great. Summary.
You need:
5 setups. 300 f2.8 400 f2.8 500 f2.8 600 f4 (equaling no less than 40k)
Assistant
Luck
There you go 😂
Love this. Every photographer on that field has a purpose. More photographers could learn a lot from their words
Would love to see a 10 year followup. good content
I love how honest these guys are…it's mostly luck, photography is better now, etc. That's reality.
https://youtu.be/ZHrtmPAONbc?t=221 500mm f/2.8 xD or don't use monopod for zoom lens. Yeah take to hand 120-300 f/2.8. Good luck…
“All that matters is if you get the picture or not”. So true!
Sorry, but that's american football, not Football
Before they all got fired.
Dream job!!
Haha popping in an 8GB card. 64 is the minimum now. 128+ standard. Shows how quickly things change. You'd get about 120 shots on that 8GB.
Magazines are going away fast. I wonder how that will affect the equation.
My god, I've never seen so many 1D-Mark IV's. And to come to think I finally have one, I'm missing the big white lens.
Not photography related, but at the time mark 00:14… What are those things in the knees?
One of the best and motivating video! (As a sports photographer)
can you shot in f4? with good quality and with a6500?
Lots of info here still relevant in 2019!
What great advice: Practice, practice, practice on everything as much as you can and Never give up. Great advice
Still true in 2019, Cheers from Germany.
The video made by FStoppers with Bergman and Bon Jovi is…amazing in it's won right. This video is the very best Fstoppers made.. These guys are all unemployed now and we'll never see them in their career environment ever again.
You had to buy the camera dummy
I shoot dog sports and I have the newest Nikon 70-200 f2.8 with the Nikon D750. The low light performance is a lot better than anything I had before but I still struggle to keep things high quality when I'm shooting an indoor sport. I was hoping these guys would talk a little more about technical stuff, camera functions I don't know about, strategies with ISO. But it was a motivational and interesting video.
Someday 🙏🏻
So what i should do is be 6 guys and give myself assignments in 6 areas? And be Lucky. Wow, great tips.
Hopefully, these guys got new jobs.
I would love to see an update about Basketball or other sports. This is a great piece and gives great insight for current Sports photographers as well as people who dont know much about it or the pro level that exists
This is so very true still, if you ant it, you have to keep pushing no matter the knock backs, make it work and you will get there, this is appropriate for all photography positions which every photographer wants to be in, you just got to have a bit of luck, be in the right place and make your impact known. Do that enough times and people will see you and your work.
Great video. Check out my sports photo channel.

This was the most inspirational video. Takes my motivation to another level.
well i can tell where the guy leaning against the green door is from, haha.
within 20 miles of Philadelphia lolol
I've always a touch time deciding whether I should go with my 400 2.8, my 500 2.8 or my 600….
I thought they laid all their photographers off
The new 500mm 2.8 ?
Inspiring. Thanks a lot for the insight!
500 2.8?
