Hi All:
I will chime in on this subject if I may?
I cover football, baseball, softball, basketball, volleyball and soccer. I also shoot (like Tom) for Maxpreps and like to shoot about 300-400 shots per game. Now I am shooting bb and that's what I average. I shoot with a Nikon D4 after the game download to photoshop. Run the batch through Denoise so for two games runs around 6 hours I think. I go to sleep at that point.
Then edit and delete the bad ones.
...that's prolly about what I would do at a football or basketball game, too. I shoot 5fps for stuff like that, it allows me to get "ones" but I can press and get a decent sequence. For wildlife and surfing I usually go 15fps because there are many nuances to wing/wave positions (Z9 "native" is 20, but to me that's a little much). But I could be shooting a band competition of 32-40 groups...I want to get at least 200 keepers per group, alot of the time I get more, but since I process each group independently and shoot alot of portraits. I don't cull (since my D4 days I'm spoiled by very few focus problems...now it's even "worse" lol)...
