Blurred action pictures

By turbocat on Feb 09, 2008

" "

Trying to take pictures at my grand daughters basketball game and it blurs the motion of the hands, feet, ball, etc . I have it in the sports mode but it still blurs when they are playing on the court. Any suggestions.

- Is that my ISO Adjustment, apeture mode, or shutter speed? (as you can tell, I'm just learning all this stuff, but sure do enjoy taking my pictures. Thanks for your help.

Not sure which camera you are using, but you'll need to be shooting at 1/250 of a second or faster to freeze action like basketball

- For 1/250, I was referring to shutter speeds with maximum aperture (the smallest number your camera can achieve, ie. f5.6-.63) for sports. ASA/ISO setting usually limit you too 400 for higher resolution settings (also dependent on your camera model)
