"On a busy day, I might take 200 photos. "
I can easily see a pro taking 20000 pictures during a sports weekend or an airshow. I took more than 3000 during an IndyCar day with several races.
- ddoolin 8y agoYep. I work for a top motorsports company and our photographers take hundreds of photos in a very short time (we have multiple drivers), leading to many thousands over an entire race weekend. The images are uploaded immediately and used for classification and analysis via ML.
- maxxxxx 8y agoAt the IndyCar race I was shooting from a parking garage roof and there was a guy who took pictures and videos of all cars and streamed them to the team for engineering analysis. this was new to me but makes sense. What series do you work for if I may ask?
- ddoolin 8y agoSorry, I have a habit of making comments and not following up in checking replies. I work for each NASCAR series, so Cup, Xfinity, and Truck. We also work with ARCA, NHRA, and IMSA but I'm not sure if this particularly level of photography or application will ever make it down to the lower series.
- munificent 8y agoYeah, I'm not doing action photography, so my numbers tend to be much smaller because I don't need to do a lot of bursts.
