Canon T6s Sports Photography Detailed Analysis
Fast Max shutter speed: 1/4000s

Canon T6s'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.

19 Cross Type Focus sensors

Cross sensors are more sensitive to light and they lock faster and more precisely.

19 Focus Points

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

Wireless Connection

It may not be used by everyone but pro sports photographers use Wi-fi to transfer files simultaneously without having to wait to change the memory card.

Good Ergonomics&Handling

With lots of external control and a good ergonomics, Canon T6s'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.

Anti Flicker feature

Many sporting events involve flickering lights that cause unwanted effects on the photos. Anti flicker feature reduces this effect, although generally reduces the maximum continuous shooting speed of the cameras.

Average Continuous Shooting: 5.0fps

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.

No Image Stabilization

Due to the lack of sensor based Image stabilization, Canon T6s 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 T6s.
