Getty Images sports photographer Julian Finney puts the Canon RF 100-300mm F2.8L IS USM lens to the test in a fast-paced athletics photoshoot.

"It's a really interesting period of sports photography and how we shoot it," says Getty Images sports photographer Julian Finney. "Technology is changing things. There are so many different pictures you can now capture quickly."

An international sports photographer based in London, UK, Julian has worked for Getty Images since 2004, shooting major sports around the globe. Usain Bolt, Roger Federer, Cristiano Ronaldo, Harry Kane: he's photographed the industry's biggest names, on and off the field, and was named UK Picture Editors Guild Awards Canon Sports Photographer of the Year in 2022.

Skill and experience are key to success in sports photography – but alongside them, new imaging technology is providing photographers with more tools than ever before to capture those defining moments. And the latest tool in the professional sports photographer's kitbag is the Canon RF 100-300mm F2. 8L IS USM. This advanced L-series RF lens combines the versatility of a zoom with the focusing speed, sharpness and optical quality of a prime lens – and with a f/2.8 aperture across its zoom range, that applies indoors and outdoors, on and off the track.
