What is the shutter count?

I shoot with a canon 7D. The Tamron lens is a decent lens. The breakdown of the lens being 18-270 on full frame that makes it 28.8-432mm equivalent focal length on Canon APS-C cameras. Having a 62mm opening means you need more light to "stop frame" the image indoors without adequate lighting.
I shoot action sports. I would recommend getting a high powered flash. Assuming you have at least a speedlite 360 you could use that with a defuser sock. But I would suggest picking up a Neewer 560. It comes with a light bender strip, defuser lens, and you can adjust the aim and intensity. It's less then $50 on Amazon.com . If I'm not working on long exposure I will allow the camera to factor in the speed equation by shooting on P. I adjust my quick settings based on my lighting, need for speed (high speed continuous or snap shots) fine light on camera censor adjustments, and servo set. I also change my metering. I use center weighted point evaluated metering.

A short and simple explanation that really has to do more with anatomy.
The camera is trained/programmed to work like the human eye. After all we (humans) developed the technology. The only way to really capture an image is to commit it to memory like you brain would.
Here is a helpful link that can explain images, focusing, and lighting. http://www.livescience.com/3919-human-eye-works.html

Hello everyone from Sunny California.
I've been shooting for about 20 years, I recently retired from the military and went back into the photography arena full time. I am currently working on opening a studio in Barstow, CA. But plan to head back to KY in March of 2016 successful or failed.
I primarily shoot action/adrenaline sports. But I also do portraits and landscapes.
What I shoot with:
Canon 99% of the time. I have 2 Canon EOS 7D's and 1 Nikon D7000. I have various lenses to accommodate my subjects.
