I haven’t shot outside sports in years.
Last week I was asked to shoot the girls soccer games so I gave it a shot.

Nikon Z7ii w/Nikon Z100-400 4.5-5.6
Most shots were around 1/1000-1/1250

I found the stadium lights to be pretty weak for photography, so ended up with a higher ISO and slower shutter than I like towards the end.


Suggestions although you didn't ask for them. Shoot tight and fill the frame. You would need a 2.8 lens to shoot at night under the best lighting. The closer shots are good.

I kind of experiment a bit to see what gets me results I like. I normally shot in manual mode - everything. Shutter, ISO, f-stop. Then found I was making adjustments for lighting in post processing that were taking up more time. So now I am experimenting in shutter priority. However, in this arena, the lighting is pretty good and quite even, so I may go back to manual the next outing.

Always looking for the best settings in each spot. Trouble is remembering them! LOL.


Still good work.

Second shot should be framed.

Nicely done.


Have you tried shooting in manual instead of shutter mode? Auto iso 1/1250 wide open. Just a thought.

After a five year hiatus, I now have an opportunity to photograph indoor football. Lots of fast action and scoring. No punting, no taking a knee and the clock runs most of the games. To top it off - no breaking for commercials! Biggest regret - home team players but for the quarterback all have dark visors! Almost impossible to catch their eyes! Which is also why they wear them! Unfortunately, home team lost

Shot with a Z9 fitted with a Nikon Z f2.8 70-200. Settings at shutter priority of 1/1000th, ISO and aperture calculated by camera. ISO 4000 and aperture 3.2.4.0

Shot my first semi pro game of 2024 Saturday evening. Close game with a lot of lead changes. However, the home team prevailed! A few of my favorites from the game follow. Very poor lighting - of course! Shot with my Z9 paired with a Tamron 35-150. Shot at 1/800, ISO 5000-6400, +2.7 EV, aperture as wide open as the lens would allow. Usually close to f2.8. A little Topaz cleanup to boot. Oh how I miss college lighting!!!


One word describes the work. Great.. You nailed the settings for sure.

What exactly are you asking?


I guess what I am asking is certain shots that are necessary to tell the story. From the graduation to the lunch celebration. That type of thing. I kind of know but looking for ideas anyway.
Thank you for your interest.
