Since the camera/microphone was about 50 feet from home base, you see the bat hit the ball slightly before you hear it

Photography Notes: Pictures taken with a Canon 7DM2 and 70-200/2.8 lens often
using a remote trigger for still pictures - have to manually engage video.
The stills are 20 MP (mega-pixels) taken at 10 FPS (frames per second) in RAW format ... so a lot of ability to massage/crop the photo.
Video is at 2MP (1920x1080) but at 60 FPS ... and that 6 times faster
makes a BIG difference in capturing the swinging bat.
Typically shooting a maximum 1/8000s (video is limited to 1/4000s) shutter speed to freeze the ball. There is some "bending" of the bat/ball which is due to the Rolling Shutter inherent in most cameras.
