[QUOTE="Squid31, post: 1104593, member: 70755"] Now this is what I have learned so far... 1) Shooting indoors is a lot harder than shooting outside to get the angle you want. They only let you go in certain places, where outdoors you can go anywhere. The plus side to shooting on the floor is you can usually move around during the moto to get a variety of shots, and not 20 laps worth of shots from corner #3 like you would get from shooting in the stands. 2) Flash will be your friend and your nightmare. When shooting wide it's usually OK, but when shooting at 200mm, it can at times light up all the stuff in the air, giving a hazy appearance to your photos. Don't be scared to experiment with both using, and not using flash. 3) When not shooting wide, or close enough for your flash to do much, the only other option you have is to increase your shutter speed. There is only one way to do this, high ISO, and shoot at or near wide open. I have found that if you must shoot high iso, make sure to overexpose by 1 or 2 thirds of a stop. If it shows up a bit over exposed in post, you can bring it down a bit and noise will not increase, and in a lot of cases it will decrease. Now, if you underexpose, and try to bring it up in post, the noise is amplified like crazy. 4) Have fun, enjoy the experience, and talk to as many people as you can between races. My first SX on the floor was St Louis last year. I got a few good shots, and had some ideas to try for the next race, but aside from the photography, I had a great time. [/QUOTE]
