Optical Built-in Viewfinder

During a sports shoot, using a viewfinder allows the photographer to stabilize the camera and reduce the camera shake since it is closer to the body. Besides, it comes handy where LCD screens are very hard to read under bright sunlight.

Slow Continuous Shooting: 3.0fps

In the world of sports photography, faster is always better.

Environmental Sealings

Most outdoor sports games are held in all-weather, so your camera has to be ready for difficult conditions such as rain and snow. Exposure to dust and water splashes are also very common in sports.

In sports photography , you keep continuous autofocus (AFC) mode on for tracking the subject and more focus means better tracking.

No Image Stabilization
