<p>i need tips in sports photography as i am planning to have a new move into sports</p>

[Matt Laur]

<p>Can you mention what sort of sports, what sort of equipment you have, and how you'll be using the photographs?</p>

<p>...and if you are planning to take pics at Day games or Night games also...</p>

[William Michael]

<p> . . . and also your budget, lead time and a thumbnail sketch of your experience, both photographic and business, the latter only if this is a business enterprise. <br>

<p>Tip: Find out more about the type of sports you are shooting. Having this basic knowledge will give you an idea of the best place (where action happens) to position yourself.<br>

<p>This forum is an excellent place to start at. Scan through the past posts and archives and read the posts that interest you or apply to the sports that you are going to shoot.</p>

<p>www.sportsshooter.com is also a good forum where the focus is on sports, sports, sports...</p>

<p>In general - sports photography can be very rewarding... but it can be very furstrating at times too. And it is a very competitive field. </p>

<p>Good Luck!</p>
