The first Saturday in October my community hosts a Czech Festival. It's the perfect excuse to haul the tumble track and a double mini outside and let our girls put on a show.

How often do we get to shoot gymnastics at ISO 200, f4, and shutter speeds in the 1/4000 range?

That's crazy, man! Gymnastics at iso 200? I didn't even know we had any settings below iso 1600! :)

I shot at 1600 iso, f4 and 1/400 once. I thought that was a dream. most of the time it's 3200 iso, f2 and 1/320 :cry:

I practically had to get the manual out to figure out what the lower ISOs were for.

I almost felt like I was cheating.

Yep, I'm much more familiar with these settings.

Looks like you were near the end of the parade route. I hope you enjoyed the day as much as my family and I did.
