Sports Photo Tip-Reducing Motion Blur

Being a sports photographer, I get a lot of questions from parents about photography.  One of the most frequently asked questions I get is how to get a clear images without motion blur.  I don’t claim to be an expert in photography or even sports photography. But, one of the most important part of stopping action is to have a fast shutter speed.  Your shutter speed should be around 1/500 of a second or faster for football, basketball, and other sports.  One of the problems, people my have in reaching the fast shutter speed is the light quality.  The lower the light, the harder it will be to achieve a fast shutter speed.
