Well, no footie or Hockey for me this weekend so just the usual mens hoops.

#1 – Under the basket running

#2 – Slam dunk the funk

#3 – Give me the ball. Originally I deleted this but I went back as I quite liked the player in the foreground

#4 – Mid air passing

#5 – Don’t you hate it when the focus is too slow

#6 - Trying something a bit different as I'd already obtained my required # of keepers. I had all these ideals floating around about setting up remotes above the hoop with wide angle lenses etc but then I realised I don't have and remotes nor wide angles :D

That is one of the nicest looking gyms I have seen. And yes, I hate those dang shots where focus didn't cooperate. Looks like you had a good time at it.

Ha! ....yea .... I always blame the equipment, too ... :lol: :lol:

But, sadly, it's usually ME that's too slow ....

Thanks for the comments, the lighting is not great to be honest. It's bearable though. ISO1250, F1.8 and 1/320. I also had +1/3 over exposure as well.

Thanks cecilc, usually it is me :), this time it was the lens as I have 5 or 6 perfectly exposed OOF shots from this sequence. How on earth did people get by before AF I have no idea.

Those are some nice photos, a bit high on noise though.

What lens were you using?

Thanks Swift, I used a 1D MKI with a 50mm 1.8. I've not run these through any noise removal software. ISO on all is 1250.
