However, equipment is just a portion of the challenge in photographing volleyball. The real key is being able to follow the action, which is so relentlessly quick and unpredictable it makes basketball seem slow. One technique is to concentrate on action at the net, because the kills and putbacks will happen there. It'll definitely require a lot of anticipation, because if you wait for a peak play, it'll be over before you have a chance to push the shutter button. 

You'll probably spend a few matches getting used to the pace of the action, which won't give you much time to rest or think. After that, you can deal with details such as your location. A position on the opposite from the elevated net judge gives the clearest view. Eventually, you'll decide whether you prefer a low or high angle."
