I do it to lock photos in camera so that I know which ones to send to the wire/paper. It's much quicker to import say 20 files than 500. Nikon D4s / 2x D3s / D3 / 17-35 2.8 / 70-200 2.8 / 600 f4

(I caught it after about 75 shots) I was shooting with a guy on my weekend job (shooting running races), and it took him about 450 shots to realize his shutter failed, had about that many shots with a huge black line in them. I didn't care, he had a Nikon...

If you know the sport you can anricipate where and when the action will occur. This is especially true in field team sports... This. Me and a friend of mine stumbled upon a rugby tournament the other day and that was somewhat difficult seeing as how neither of us had ever seen/played rugby before. Although once you watch it for a bit you realize it's pretty similar to a football/soccer hybrid and it becomes a little easier to get the hang of. 7D gripped | 5DmkII gripped | 30D gripped | Sigma 70-200mm f/2.8 | Sigma 24-70 f/2.8 | Canon 70-200 f/4L | Canon 400 f/5.6L |Canon 430EZ | Canon 430 EX II | Flashpoint 400 w/s strobe | more soon
