K100D/DA 50-200 at water polo
Posted By: jsundin, 04-28-2007, 09:16 PM

After dealing with Lacrosse outside in the sun, I came indoors to my daughter's waterpolo tournament. The lighting is always tricky - there is a section of the water where the sun shone and I would have to quickly add +1 to the exposure since the camera kept underexposing that part of the pool. I set the shutter at 1/500 and the ISO at 3200 and just let it rip. Here are some of the high points. This is all straight from the camera, no processing or cropping. I will have to get on that later, but for now, here are the shots.


The shot


The score (2.45fps can work well, if you time it right.)


Another shot








I hope you enjoyed these.

Well Wow! again Jeff, it's just terrible these Pentax cameras and sports! I mean you can see the individual water droplets from the splash. Simply terrible

I told the players I had a Pentax and asked them to shoot slower and use the special slower water so I can capture it. :-D
