Perfect examples of when burst shooting can help
You might not need the camera’s rapid shooting skills often but when you do, they can be really useful
STRIKE A POSE
The art of portrait and people photography is catching a fleeting gesture, look or pose and shooting quickly can help catch the instant when a scene comes together. The model was moving slowly and changing pose, using the breeze to catch the material of her dress, and as the sun was setting, the scene was constantly evolving. In this instance, a prolonged burst of frames wasn’t necessary and I took short bursts of two or three frames as the scene changed. Also, as I was using a 50MP medium-format camera, shooting sparingly in this manner helped to keep the camera buffer clear. The image was taken on a Fujifilm GFX 50S with a 120mm telephoto lens.
