3 HOURS Many of the best motorsports photos have one thing in common: a real feeling of speed. Fastshutterspeeds will freeze moments of action, and high-octane car and bike racing are perfect subjects for this treatment. At 1/3200 sec you can capture a crisp shot of a motorbike zooming round a circuit; however, you’ll also freeze the background and wheels, removing any indication of motion, and for all the viewer can tell, your subject could be parked on the track. To retain that sense of motion you need to shoot at a much slower shutter speed, but the problem here is that this will blur the entire subject. The answer is to sight and track your subject through the viewfinder, match its speed while engaging continuous focus, and press the…

WATCH THE VIDEO https://bit.ly/41NsikN DOWNLOAD THE PROJECT FILES https://bit.ly/pho_146 ON APC OR MAC Luminosity masking is a powerful technique for making selective tonal adjustments. It’s a favorite with landscape photographers, offering precise control over the range of tones in an image that are selected and adjusted. Essentially, luminosity masking allows us to select particular areas of brightness. In our coastal scene above, it means we can target the bright areas of sky around the sun, or the dark groynes in the foreground, then enhance only those areas. There are several plugins that make luminosity masks, but to understand how they work it helps to know how to create your own, using simple selection shortcuts in combination with Channels in Photoshop. The Channels panel lets us isolate luminosity by loading selections…

We often advise our readers to spend time becoming familiar with all of the functions and features our cameras offer, highlighting the importance of this over getting the latest and greatest model. A new camera opens up possibilities, but these will go to waste if you don’t know the layout and menu structure well enough to make informed settings changes. Once you do, you can make rapid adjustments without taking your eye off the viewfinder. After a few months of using a new camera, we probably think we know it pretty well. But even if you’ve used your camera for several years, it’s still possible to find hidden treasure among the sub-menus and custom functions. What tends to happen is that we use the same tools regularly without ever truly…

Remembering Wildlife, the book project that supports conservation charities, has announced the results of its competition to choose images that will appear alongside photos from some of the world’s top wildlife photographers in its upcoming book Remembering Leopards. The book, which will be published in October, will feature photos of leopards by photographers including Marsel van Oosten, Greg du Toit and Will Burrard-Lucas, plus the 20 contest-winning images submitted by readers of our sister publication Digital Camera Magazine. The series, which began with Remembering Elephants and now includes seven titles, has so far raised more than £1 million for conservation projects.

www.canon.co.uk £669/$499 The Canon RF 14-35mm L-series lens is compact and lightweight, but the RF 15-30mm is particularly small for its type. Designed with full-frame R-system cameras in mind, it’s also a good fit for APS-C format bodies. When you want to go wide, this lens obliges with a maximum viewing angle of 110.5 degrees, and the zoom range isn’t just for expansive landscapes; it’s also well suited to cityscapes and architectural interiors as well as vlogging and selfies. The 5.5-stop optical image stabiliser is a bonus when shooting indoors, especially given the modest aperture rating, and it’s particularly useful when using the lens with EOS R cameras that don’t feature in-body image stabilisation. Used with cameras that do have IBIS, combined stabilisation is boosted to 7-stop effectiveness. Performance Autofocus…
