Hi Guys, im going to silverstone for the f1 next week, and desperatley need some advice...
This will be my first outing with a SLR camera and been trying to read up as much as i could and im just getting too confused.
I have a Canon 450d and will be using a EF 75-300mm f4/5.6 USM MK3 lens, i dont just want to be a idiot just sticking to sports mode and really need advice on what mode to actually use etc, i know light is the key thing because the shutter speed needs to be high and if its too dull the sensor will make the image to dark (i think). so would really appreciate some advice on how to deal with motorsport.

Have exactly same setup.

Just stick it on tv mode focus on track and spin dial up till green light goes out then bring it back until it relights.

Panning is the trick to keep shutter speed down on a dull day, plus looks better anyway.
