SPORTS PHOTOGRAPHY

"I started photography only 2 years ago for GCSE level with school and would go up to the local rugby club with only my phone and take tons of photos. 

However when I wanted to get better quality photos for my hobby, so I got my first camera, a Nikon Coolpix L810. This was my first ever experience with a bridge camera and I underestimated its power, with a 26x zoom range it surprised me when shooting on the rugby field. 

However, there was one big flaw with this camera, it did not have a very long battery life, with no factory battery, it used alkaline ones, getting me only 20 minutes of shooting time before I had to replace the batteries.

Fast forward a year later and I have saved up enough money to buy myself a Canon 4000D body with an 18-56mm macro lens, as I didn't know much about lenses, I thought this was going to be fine for my sports photography hobby. 

I then later found out it was not working for me and I needed a higher zoom telephoto lens that would do the job much better, and I bought one, a 55-250mm lens to improve my sports photography soon-to-be career."
