A few weeks ago, I took my camera on a trip to see the Iowa Cubs. The I-Cubs are the triple A team for the Chicago Cubs. The staff at the ball park was very nice to me and my camera!! A VERY photographer friendly place!! It was a FUN outing and I think I'll be going back soon... C&C appreciated... Please... (It's the only way I learn!) During the day games, I shot at an ISO of 100, and for the night game, I dialed up the ISO to 2000. Shutter speeds ranged from 1/250 to 1/500.

Nice shots. The nice thing about Principal Park is that you can ask to be placed on the first or third base line should you choose to take in your camera. It's a frieldny park and there are lots of good seats to shoot from.

I shot the Isotopes at Cubs on 6/26, there's things I liked and didn't like about Principal Park but for the most part it is a very cool park.

LOL... I was at this game. Sitting 2nd row right behind home plate... Had a hard time shooting through the netting! Great game, though!!
