I always shoot a photo of the scoreboard after a touchdown or some other big play. It’s a way of taking visual notes quickly so that my caption information is correct. At Friday’s BYU vs. Utah State game the new scoreboard in Romney Stadium was pretty, but it sure didn’t photograph well. I couldn’t read a thing.
Is the scorebaord problem because of shutter speed? I am still learning about photography so I would be interested in the answer.

I should have pointed out that this is happening because this scoreboard is acting like a video monitor and I’m shooting at a higher shutter-speed. If I shot it at a slower speed, say 1/60th or slower, it would look fine.
