First outing with the MK III and 100 f/2.0

Hope you like 'em.

Nice !! What was the ISO for these? They look very good noise-wise. Also, Which auto focus point configuration did you use?

ISO 3200 on both shots.
1/500 @ f/2.2 on the first one.
1/400 @ f/2.2 on the second.

Not sure how to explain the focus point configuration question because I'm still trying to figure out the camera. I chose a lower point so the focus would grab the legs and not the net. Overall, it worked pretty good with the shot of #7 being one of the best pics of the tournament for me.

I think I have a custom function set to use the points surrounding the main focus point to help assist in focusing.

Hope this helps.

These are great! It's nice to finally see some example pics from the under-appreciated 100 f/2.
