How does this work with action shots? Like if I'm taking pics at a soccer game or a ballet recital? Do the images get blurry?

The camera will work just the same for the quality, only diffrence it will be zoom in much closer, only down fall it will be very shaky the video or picture, it's best advice to put your elbow agains your chest like the guides tell you for the less shaky effect, so far I'm loving this lens

I haven't had as much luck getting it to take good close up pictures as I have with action, low-light and zoom shots. However, that could be user error. I'm not a seasoned photographer. My close ups are always blurry, though.

Like other responses, I have used the Panasonic app successfully on an Android phone. There is a noticeable lag when taking a picture. I have not timed it but feels close to 1/2 to 3/4 a second. The live display is also delayed and is probably show at 10 frames/sec. ( but again I have not timed it.) So I would not recommend the interface for taking action shots. It is fine for group portrait shots - especially to get the framing right, but not to catch that fleeting expression. Best use I have found is for a remote shutter release of a long exposure when camera is on a tripod.

Also... what seems to help is a half press on the capture button. I do this before every shot to re-focus the camera especially if at a distance or people are moving. I notice that when I don't the photo is grainy or blur can occur. Hopefully the other post helped you, but you can do this too.

I really can't speak to those events specifically (yet) but I have taken shots of my kids running in the park, rolling down the hill, etc with both the kit lens and the new 50mm I just got and the d3200 worked great. Disclaimer here is that those are outdoor photos. Depending on the venue and the lighting, that may somewhat play a factor in his it performs for action photos. Also, I've used both the single shot and continuous shot features and am very pleased with the results.

It depends on how good of a high ISO your camera can handle and how low of a light level. If you want to freeze action, in low light, you may have to go to an f1.8 or lower. If you are OK with motion blur, it will do the job. It also depends whether you have in body stabilization on your camera since this does not have lens stabilization.

Yes. This camera is great for action shots. Like any SLR camera, you will need to be sure to have it on the right settings when taking action shots. It will also take three pictures back to back with one click. The shutter speed is fast. It only takes three pictures with one click if you set it to do so. Great for action shots. I am a new learner to SLR CAMERAS.

I'm not an expert, and this is my first digital camera. I wanted the zoom capability for taking pictures of the kids doing sports, and dance (without flash) Not every picture turns out great as the kids move around, but I have gotten a large number of really good pictures at both soccer games and dance recitals.

I got this as a gift for my brother, so I have not really worked with it. It would be hard to capture good actions shots, I would think unless you were really close up and held the camera really still or put on a tripod. I finally broke down and bought a Canon Rebel SLR to take photos at football games. Even with that you need the additional telephoto lens and set it to TV mode, but of course, it is a lot more expensive. My brother loves this one for general picture taking.

Okay M.I got my camera last night. I took a couple of pictures on my in to work this morning. I am going to post them after I make this post. I don't know what people are complaining about when they complain that the pictures are blurry. The pictures I took were extremely sharp. For the sample picture go the listed item. I will post more pictures by Sunday. Feel free to email me if you have any questions (superat06@gmail.com)Sean

It's great. I actually use the camera to take pictures of martial arts. The speed is fast, I can always capture the moment that I want. The only problem is that the flash always goes off in this mode. I am not sure if I can add flash in the action mode -- I have not figured out yet.

My T5 works wonderfully for action shots. I use an 18-250 lens which lets me get the shots even if they are further away. The focus is very fast and all I have to do is make sure I have the subject in the viewfinder. I have become fairly good at panning (following the subject as it moves) and have been happy with the results. I use a 32GB SD card with a fast transfer rate (90mbs/sec). I have been experimenting with the video mode and while the video is excellent I'm not much of a cameraman with it...yet! Have fun and enjoy, the T5 is the absolute best camera for the money.

Yeah, it does. One of the functions helps action photos look clearer. I have also used another function that allows to take sequential photos. I am sure I have to learn more about this camera but It has been a good buy. I still think the camera doesn't take good pictures in dark places, but as I told you, I have to play a little bit more with it.

You can set the ISO to a high setting and get fast shutter speeds. That will make the pictures sharp.The action setting should do this automatically.

I take flower and action scene shots. It stops action very well and with 18-55 mm and 55-300 mm lenses, both nikon works great. It's a general pack not specifically for just sports. It does it all.

It did very well when I took photos inside at a college basketball game. I used the shutter priority for 1/400 speed. The "scene" sports setting was giving me 1/250 and 1/300. I'd post a picture, but don't know how. I was impressed.

Sorry, I don't know. I have great results on auto focus, Closeup indoor with flash and action soccer shots, zoomed in outdoors.Tip: On the out door action shots, regardless of natural lighting, I ALWAYS use flash--I believe it shoots faster with flash onand stops the action better.
