Thanks for the input guys, I'm using a K10D btw and my 50mm is a manual focus. And i did think that possibly in print the image may come out more to my liking as opposed to looking at it on my monitor. I'm just so used to shooting in a studio it's a bit of a change for me.

As far as the shoot info, its was 50mm f/1.4 @ 1/250, 800ISO and I shot RAW so I could white balance post production.

Maybe I should re-word my question more towards what are YOUR opinions on a good lens for this type of situation? Preferably an auto-focus ;)

I'm going through the images now, but basically I'm hoping for the next go round to be able to get the ISO down to get the images less grainy, and yes it was hard to keep moving objects in focus at f/1.4.

Can anyone suggest a good lens for a sporting event in an indoor arena situation? Unfortunately flash is out of the question when the event itself is happening and the lighting is less than spectacular. Think basketball court with way less lighting.

Thanks.


Edit: I might add I tried shooting over the weekend in the arena and the best images I got were with my 50mm 1.4 with ISO @ 800, but I'm looking for a little bit sharper of an image.
