This photngr perfect job--hey"stopped" the ball. Tennis phctogn is a real challeng By JERRY WINDLE Tennis, anyone? - That is the cry around the country. For the photographer, the art of tennis photography can' be qui,e a challenge plus a valuable learning tool. In all sports photography, be it tennis, baseball, football or whatever, the key ingredient is timing. This also involves what is called Peak Action, but that deserves a column in itself. But here we want to concern ourselves with timing. You think it is a spap to get \a picture like one with tennis ball in it? Consider this: most of you are using a single lens: reflex camera, A single lens is used by the photographer to view, 6 77374;E? 1?i,`t?far } H. •RDON. GREEN re Writing in the Montreal Star's religious section recently, an Anglican clergyman suggests that the collection plate may soon be seen in antique shops and no- where else. "No more need to write checks, or fill in the duplex envelope or dig in your wallet for a dollar bill. Beginning this fall churches in five metropolitan centres in the U.S. will invite their parishioners to give to the Lord by credit card. Master Charge or Bank Americard will do very nicely thank you, and several other credit firms are also participating in the plan. All a church member has to do is to just sign an ,authorization slip, indicating how much he wants to give, and whether he wishes to pay by the quarter or by the month. This amount will then be deducted from his bank checking 'account and will be credited to a new system which has been in- corporated under the name of the Authorized Contribution Transfer Service. A computer in Santa Monica, California does the rest — for a small fee of course. You don't even have to go to church to be eligible for this ser- vice. Now who says that the church is unprogressive and old-fash- ioned? And I am sure that we have only seen the beginning of the fully automated, completely convenient church. With the ecumenical movement gathering favour and respectability with every passing Sunday, I can fore- see a time when we will have only one church`. This will' be possible, I think, because it will be a mult- iple-choice church and so fully automated that one can have a service made-to-order for him. And after giving some prayerful thought, I have now acquired a pretty complete idea of what such a church will be like. It will, first of all, be a drive-in affair, but instead of having one massive screen up front, there will be a screen and a sound system for every car which pre- sents its credit card at the gate. Whether you prefer Billy Graham or Rabbi Stern or Car- dinal Leger won't matter. Just press the right button and there is the man of your faith in full flow- ing colour. And the fact that Car- dinal Leger may be dead at that time, won't Matter. Through the miracle of electronics he will achieve immortality here " on earth as it is in heaven. Press an- other button and you. will have electronic chimes as well and another row of buttons will offer your soul musical blessings such as today's threadbare choir could never hope to give you. In the first place, you will be able to hear sacred music 'sung by professionals. No more of these so-called `anthems" offered up to God by a dozen doubtful women and one or two males trying to hold down the bass. You will not only be able to hear the hymns of your choice sung by magnificent voices, but you will be able to choose the manner in which that hymn will be given. If your soul yearns for the blessed assurance of "Amazing Grace" for in- stance, you will not only inform the computer of your wish, but you will tell it whether you want that grand old hymn sung by the Mormon Tabernacle Choir, played on the bagpipes or thumped out by a rock band. There will be buttons for vari- ous categories of prayers too, I think. Would you like to pray for rain? A new government? a wandering son? It will be just a matter of running down a list and pressing the right button. If you feel like giving the Man Upstairs a piece of your mind, that too will probably be permitted. After all, General Patton apparently got just as good results that way as lesser generals did with mere be- seeching. Communion will be no problem either. Whether you want sacra- mental wine or Welch's grape juice, an automatic dispenser will give it to you in a Dixie cup. 'Sacrilegious, you say? I don't think so. After all, what is the one all-important mission of your church or mine? Of any church? Isn't it to root us ever more deeply in the faith of our fathers? To defend, confirm and stub- bornly reinforce what we already believe? My cathedral of tomorrow — my Church of the Multiple -Choice Gospel — would make it easier and surer than ever that a man would continue in what he al- ready believed. Unless he pressed the wrong button. compose, focus and shoot the picture. This is made possible by a mirror placed between the shutter and lens. The • mirror angles the image onto a ground glass until the picture is made, then flips Out • of the way so the image will strike the film. . Even though this takes .only a fractibn of a second, it is long enough to miss the ball if you . wait until it is in the viewfinder." •That is where timing comes in. You have to anticipate and release . the shutter before the ball enters the frame. There are a couple of ways to do this. With your camera focused on the player, " listen and watch. Listen f9r his' opponent to hit the `call and then watch the player as he preps giY�;:� he,� To .4-6 g � ood ctiton wine • � freezes the ball you are going to have to use a shutter speed of 1 -00th, or even better, 1- 1,000th of a second. A medium telephoto lens works well. A 135mm or 200mm is best. For the beginning tennis shooter a longer lens is better left to the pro. Where do you shoot from? A good position for• the beginner is at the net. Not right on the net but back from the net so you are looking across. This way you can shoot either player with the same lens. However, you will find one end of the court will be lit better. But do not fret, the players change courts so you will get a chance at both in good light. As you get a little more proficient you can experiment, and Move around. A good shot is from behind a player looking across the net at the other. ° This angle is hard to get because the courts are not designed to accommodate another person on the end of a court. So, if the backdrop has a hole in it, you are in good shape. It is not recommended that you cut a hole in the backdrop for this shot. -Shooting a doubles match is something else since you now have four people playing at once and who will hit the ball is anybody's guess. With the telephoto lenses you will get practice on the very useful technique of follow focus. As the player moves back and forth on the court you are going to be constantly changing focus with him. Even though he is limited in his movements within the ^ confines ^ of tennis court, with ^tth lend YRS► focus - eenstantly. au good practice for you.
