Nice picture, I have the same combination, do you use auto iso?

Thank you. Yes, always.

That first shot is nothing short of excellent! PS I shot for a couple of local newspaper sports pages when I was considerably younger. I know how hard it is to get one shot in a whole game that is that good.

Thanks for that, but I can't take all the praise, a little is due to the fast shutter rate and ability to handle higher iso of the K3ii.
