Common Issues
Overexposed sky washes out the scene
Why: Bright sky causes camera to underexpose subjects or blow out the background
Mentioning both sky and subjects helps AI adjust each independently
Motion blur on fast-moving athletes
Why: Action happens too fast for phone cameras in auto mode
Use a tap marker directly on the athlete for targeted sharpening
Fence, net, or barrier blocking the shot
Why: Sports venues have safety barriers between spectators and the field
AI handles chain-link and mesh removal well β just mark the area
Harsh midday shadows on outdoor action
Why: Direct overhead sun creates deep shadows under hats, visors, and brows
Specify 'under the cap' so AI targets the shadow without overexposing
