Over the years, we’ve had the opportunity to speak with some of the world’s greatest sports photographers, on the B&H Photography Podcast and for the Explora blog. For this year’s B&H Sports Photography Week, I’ve compiled a short list of my favorite sports photography articles and interviews.

In 2015, we had the chance to photograph with a rare Canon 1200mm lens, one that was initially designed for the highest level of international sports competitions. Very few have been manufactured and, to put the uniqueness of this lens into perspective, I had a brief chat with veteran Sports Illustrated photographer Peter Read Miller. Miller used this lens while covering international sports in summer 1992 and later for Major League Baseball and other assignments (which include covering 41 American pro football championships). In our conversation, he discusses the good and the not-so-good of working with such a beast of a lens, and he relates the reaction it received from photographers upon debut.
