Canon 600D Sports Photography Detailed Analysis
Fast Max shutter speed: 1/4000s
Canon 600D's 1/4000s shutter speed is fast enough to freeze any almost all sports action and is also helpful when you use a fast lens at largest aperture under bright sunlight.
1 Cross Type Focus sensors
Cross sensors are more sensitive to light and they lock faster and more precisely.
Good Ergonomics&Handling
With lots of external control and a good ergonomics, Canon 600D's body is very good for sports photography.
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.
Average Continuous Shooting: 4.0fps
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.
9 Focus Points
In sports photography , you keep continuous autofocus (AFC) mode on for tracking the subject and more focus means better tracking.
No Image Stabilization
Due to the lack of sensor based Image stabilization, Canon 600D users have to rely on lenses with optical IS in order to maximize the sharpness of their sports photography photos. Currently there are native Canon EF/EF-S mount lenses with Image Stabilization for Canon 600D.
