    Thank you for the tips! I'm finally starting to use remote cameras - I shoot motorsports so lot of the points don't apply but there is still plenty to learn from and use. So thanks again!

    Would love to see football, soccer, baseball remote set ups...I have set up behind soccer net....and basketball remotes but never FB or baseball!

      Football is a hard one other than taking overalls of the game because the playing field is too large and you never know where the action is happening. Baseball and basketball are easier because the action always happens in specific locations on the field of play.

    Thx for a great video! Would you make one for a soccer goal remote as well, specially for summer night game, when the light is constantly changing.

      At some point we will be making a "How to Photograph..." series on soccer and other sports. In the meantime, my suggestion would be to keep your camera on aperture or shutter priority to compensate for the changing exposure during sunset. (you could also just use auto ISO)

    Great Video! What are the dimensions for the mouse hole if I wanted one cut inside my basketball hoop?

    Love it! A topic I've always wanted to know about. Now, with those modern cameras you use, wouldn't AF work, maybe pick up eye AF on the player? Have you ever had bad experiences with AF that made you stuck to manual?

    • @byuphoto
      @byuphoto  2 месяца назад +1

      Honestly I haven't used AF yet but that is something I am going to try this year for sure!

    Great Video thank you so much! In our League they dont allow the tape or foile on the Backboard to stop the reflection on the Backboard Camera, do you have any advice how i can minimise the reflection with out the Black Foile?

    • @byuphoto
      @byuphoto  2 месяца назад

      You can use a circular polarizer. That will help minimize reflection!

    There are much better clamps than super clamps. They don't grip square bars well. They're great for round and smaller pieces of metal but they're quite awful for stanchions.

    is there a way you can get the images from the remote cameras without going to them physically ?

    • @byuphoto
      @byuphoto  2 месяца назад +2

      in our overhead basket remote, we have it sending all of the images to an FTP gallery that we pull from during the game. That is one way to do it. You could possibly connect your cameras to the manufacturers mobile app and download images that way as well. it is just harder to go through all the images that way.

    • @DionisFerizi
      @DionisFerizi 2 месяца назад +1

      @@byuphoto there's a way to send all of them automatically ? that's good to know

    The need for f4 is why a crop is better in low light for action thats a ways away from the camera. .. A crop shooting f2.8 has a DOF of a FF at f4. That allows a crop to shoot a lower ISO or a faster shutter speed! A crop gets the same amount of light as a FF.. A lens can only crap out so much light!! For the wide angle tho, FF just looks better!

    If the receiving Pocket Wizard is in the hot shoe does it have to have the cable plugged also?

    • @keithlucas1191
      @keithlucas1191 3 месяца назад +1

      Yes...well pretty sure. I do not think the hot Shoe will reverse the transmission....so yes the cable has to be plugged in....

    • @byuphoto
      @byuphoto  2 месяца назад +1

      Great question. Yes, it always needs to be plugged in. The hot shoe on the receiving camera does nothing but hold the transmitter. I should have specified that in the video!
