My grandson plays on the Kitchener Minor Bantam AA hockey team. Last night we played the Brantford 99ers at the Wayne Gretzky Sports Center in Brantford, Ontario, which is Gretzky's home town.
As you might imagine its a very nice ice hockey venue with four separate rinks, and more importantly from my perspective, they are well lit.
I decided to try my smc Pentax-DA*300mm F4 and see how it would perform.... very well, I think you'll agree. Mostly I was shooting at iso 3200, 1/800s and F4. I think they use sodium lights so unhappily the colour would rapidly change from pinkish to greenish, and all shades in between. I had to do some major colour cast removal in PS to get reasonable colours.
See what you think:
My grandson after taking a slap shot on the elbow - ouch !
Definitely a trip...
How did he miss ?
Should be on a hockey card...
A scramble in the crease.
