Mirror-less cameras rule......

Here is a quick link to my recent assignment to photograph the T&C Roofing Snooker League at the Gremlin Club.
These jobs are always interesting as a photographer is probably the last person the players want to see when they bend to set up their next shot.
The technique I use is to chose the longest and fastest lens that will work in the room. That way I hope to be back out in the darkest part of the room - but still be in line of their shot.
The next thing that is (or used to be) a problem was the 'clatter' that a professional level camera makes when the shutter is pressed.
Maybe you noted that I said 'used to'.
One of the great benefits that the modern mirror-less cameras give to a photographer is the freedom of not having to worry about that 'clatter' at a crucial moment of play. It's a revelation!
Shooting Golf also benefits from the Mirror-less advantage.
Just for your information I was shooting with a NIKON Z9. NIKON have been my choice of camera for decades and I love them.
