Middle School Basketball

This school always plays in a non-school league before the season starts. I photographed these at ISO 6400 (first time shooting this high) due to some lights being out and not allowed to use strobes.

I'm impressed that the ISO6400 yielded such IQ. What noise reduction method did you apply?

LR3 at about 50%

wow those are some nice ISO 6400 shots. i dont think my 7D gets them nearly that clean but im not very skilled at PP and NR

nice job on the set. i think a better angle would have helped get the players faces giving you a little better photos. you did capture some nice action

Thanks Brian! As far as angles, I was restricted to the corners of the baseline. There was only about 2-3ft to the wall and the refs didn't want me behind the goal. Even when I sat on the floor, possibilty of getting the player and goal in the background was difficult. You have to remember that these are middle schoolers (13-14yrs old). Most, on this team anyway, can't get that high up to the goal.
