Hmmm, by that definition American football and hockey are both sports
:-). Seriously, I've shot a lot of motorsports (although no
motorcycles) and quite a bit of American football. I find both quite
fun to shoot. A lot of my motorsports shootign was with a 200 mm lens.
Same for football. Although I've shot motorsports with lenses as long
as 800mm. The compressed perspective can be interesting. I always shoot
sports in manual mode. Same is true for nature photography. I want to
control both the stop and the shutter. It's not hard to keep an eye on
the exposure.
