Exhibition Rugby
Posted By: SouthShoreRob, 08-02-2008, 08:06 PM

Our little town is promoting a first-ever RUGGERFEST this weekend showcasing rugby and - what else - beer. Naturally, being a beer lover myself, I thought I'd stop by have a cup or two and shoot some rugby (which I had never done before). Well the plan was nearly without incident...sun was out, players were playing, and the beer was DELICIOUSLY cold. However, my camera was anything but and in its "overheated" state, the AF decided to scroll out and back without locking on anything. Needless to say I was pissed, but what can you do? Shoot manual focus, of course. A few samples:







For the record, I did try the AF about an hour ago and it seems to be back to normal, but still, I am concerned. Anyone else have this happen?

Hey Rob, heading there this pm - Malden Park and the car show. So, if you see anyone with a Pentax(s) it would probably be yours truly.

Rob some nice shots - I have had some AF issues but it seems to be lens dependent. Love the last one. The guy with the ball looks like he needed some tough love haha
