Howto take Mclaren Mercedes F1 Pics!!
McLaren Mercedes Formula One car taken in Sepang 2008
A lot of ppl will be stun to see such sharp close up photo of a formula 1 car. In actuall fact everyone can take a nice picture of the F1 cars!!
I listed a few tips here.:-
1. Use C-AF mode on your SLR
2. Shoot RAW to edit the WB if your SLR sucks in WB like canon.
3. Use Burst mode.. my Olympus E3 can support up to 5 frame per second..so this help a lot..
4. Activate IS 2 image stabilization mode in your Olympus E3. As for canon n nikon..u have to rely on the lens image stabiliser..
5. Dont be afraid to use higher ISO up to 400. But most of the time ISO 100 will do during a bright day time.
6. Use slower shutter speed for panning for more dramatic effect. I choose 1/160 sec
7. Chose to shoot near corner cause there is where the most drama is..
8. Bring extra battery to shoot.
9. You need a tele lens with at least 200mm to shoot a decent close up of the F1 car.
10. For metering you can chose spot on metering but i know some low end slr like canon 400d dont have spot on metering.
sayonara..hope more guys will share F1 car pic in the future..
