Well I stopped down the 100-400L and presto! (pics)

So yesterday I was somewhat disappointed by the images that came from my 100-400, mostly shot wide open and too soft... so today I stuck around F8-F11 (after cleaning the sensor AGAIN) and shot ISO200/400 in Av most of the day, pretty much 95% of the time in AI Servo. Had a lot of fun out there and was really pleased with my percentage of usable images... much sharper than yesterday and better contrast. Figured I'd share a few and get some advice from the motorsports experts on here!

BTW, I don't know if anyone here follows the Indy Racing League, but if you do you'll know more about these guys than I do... I just know they were the winners :)

Thanks,
Adam

Whew!

Great shots Adam, I found a few of them pretty comical as well :) IMG0651 in particular. Sorry my mind goes a little off the deep end sometimes. :)

Good job!

Lol I didn't think about that when I posted it... wonder if that's 'Swedish made'?
