Abstract:
This is a book about photographing low-light and indoor sports-not as a professional working for a major sports publication or website-but as a parent or friend trying to capture a great memory. In Photographing Indoor Sports, author and photographer Alan Hess takes you through the basics of shooting basketball in the gym, martial arts at a dojo, water polo inside, and night football games under the lights. Photographing these sports can be a challenge, because you need to use action-stopping shutter speeds without a lot of light. This means using lenses that open as wide as possible and ISO settings that can introduce a lot of digital noise. This book covers all of these techniques to help you get that ideal sports shot in low light-and hopefully have some fun along the way. Follow along with Alan and you will: Learn how to handle low-light scenarios by adjusting your White Balance setting, noting where the lights are the brightest, and watching as the action crosses into different areas Understand the importance of using a wide-open lens with a high ISO setting to get the right exposure for your low-light action shots Explore post-processing techniques such as noise reduction and black-and-white conversion with Silver Efex Pro and the Saturation Slider in Adobe Camera Raw or Photoshop Lightroom
