KL and I attended a friend's daughter's final lacrosse game. It was a great photo-op to practice some sports photography. After reading about it ahead of time, many pros recommend using high ISO to allow you to increase shutter speed. In this case however, because we were outdoors, a high ISO was not needed. I was able to shoot most of Sara's game with a shutter speed between 1/1000 - 1/4000 s.
Most of the time for sports photography you would want fast shutter speed; however, there are instances where you may want to use a slow shutter speed and a technique known as panning. It gives a feeling of movement in the photos with a sharp subject, but blurry background. Eg. racing, cycling
