I like this shot and was wondering if you used a filter and exactly how did you get the exposure to make this shot work...?

You didn't mention anything about using a tripod. This helped me a lot when I photograph basketball games. The best thing to do is get yourself set up close to 90 degrees to the net set your camera up and pre-focus on a area under the net that where most of the action will take place. I would try going back to using the zoom lens and see if it works better with the tripod this way you can take advantage of Pentax fast auto focus. Use the spot focus. I had no problem setting up the tripod in the bleachers I set one leg up on the bleacher in front of me where people will set and the other two where your feet are. . this should help on focus and motion blur.

I'm in the same boat.... looking to buy my first flash for the k20d and the Pentax flash has some bad reviews on Amazon. The Pentax 540 has a mounting problem with a metal spring loaded 'lock pin' which fits into a receptor hole in the camera hot-shoe breaking and the flash is stuck on the camera. After reading about 30 reviews on all the above flashes I'm thinking of biting the bullet and get the Metz 58. I'll probably keep looking for a deal for another month or so...
Best of luck...
