Hi,
With the soccer season coming to an end, I decided to speak with the director of my local Adult Hockey League, to see if I could go down there and shoot. He was very excited about it and he even offered to provide me with glass cleaner and the opportunity to shoot from the bench, which was nice of him. My health insurance is pretty lame, so I might pass on the bench, even though it’s very tempting. I’ll be shooting with my new 7D Mark ii and a Canon 70-200mm 2.8
This will be my first time shooting hockey, so I’ve been doing as much research as possible, but I would like to hear if anyone has any advice for shooting hockey or shooting sports with the 7D Mark ii. It has lots of AF options, so I plan on experimenting with those.
I’m planning on shooting in manual with the aperture set to 2.8, shutter 500th or 1000th if possible, then adjusting the iso accordingly. Set custom white balance using the ice.
Thanks for reading. If anyone has any tips I would be extremely grateful.
