These are some shots of the homecoming football game at my kids' HS. My first attempt at sports would have to be at night under the lights!
Anywho, my fastest tele is my Soligor 135 2.8. Shots were from the stands, so I tried using my 85-300 zoom for isolation purposes, but at F5 it was tough freezing the motion even at ISO 3200. I also noticed it suffered a bit of a flare problem near 300mm, so I went back to the 135 for the faster speed. All are manual focus with standard focus screen on the K20D (haven't bought a split-screen yet).
All the following shots were 135mm (202 equivalent) F2.8 ISO 3200 and shutter speeds between 1/320" - 1/800". Minor PP for levels and just a touch of sharpening after resize. No cropping for composition.
So...whaddya think?
