Ann:
A great collection of perfectly-timed action shots but those long-jump sand-landings are the cherries on top!
armando_m:
Anthony, wonderful series, and indeed,
the long jump landings are dramatic , great timing
Nasos Kosmas:
Very nice series of photos!
Anthony:
Thank you, all, for your comments.
Tommie, I was shooting AFC at 11 fps. Where the EXIF shows 200mm, this was the Fuji 200/2; where the dedicated 1.4 t/c was used the EXIF shows 280mm. The light for the hurdles was good, but later on became overcast and we had a couple of rain showers.
Peter, you are right, the AF of the X-T3 is a major improvement over that of its predecessors. I no longer feel at a disadvantage to a DSLR user when shooting sports.
Ann, the sand does give some good opportunities for photos, unlike the foam mats used by the pole vaulters!
ColinM:
Great to see some sport here Anthony.
The first 2 hurdling photos illustrate how high the athletes actually have to jump to clear the hurdles.
The athlete with the number 6 on him in the Javelin has a wonderful expression of facial concentration
