Did you use natural available light or a flash?

If anyone shows images of high iso, they can't be submitted if a flash was used as it would be pointless

Ok, in about 4 hours by now i will go to shoot the football game, and that time it is night here, so will be shooting under the stadium floodlights, should i shoot normal at ISO1600-3200 or should i try higher ISO such as 6400/8000/12800....etc​??

Difficult to tell without details, but i feel from the flickr Exif and shutter speed 1/25 that he/she was using natural light with flash, if i will use flash then minimum i will use 1/80 or 1/100 and not going that high ISO too.

Shoot at whatever ISO you need to achieve at least 1/640 shutter speed and with the widest aperture of the lens you have

Well, that stadium if i remember is good enough, i can shoot with shutter speed 1/1000 maybe at ISO1250-1600 and f3.2 even, but my lens even at 2.8 it doesn't give me that great dof i want as from 400-->600.

Is it really not necessary to shoot with say for example 1/2000 and ISO 6400 f2.8? you feel that is too much?

Quick question for any user which has went from, or has a 5D MK III to compliment.

What did you find were the key winning points for the 1Dx, that you felt lacked in the 5D MK III? is the IQ difference really significant?

Ok, i don't have 5D mkIII, but i think a body design is one point, i heard AF of 1DX is way better than 5D3, higher ISO is better if beyond or higher 12800, some said the color rendition of 1DX is truer or better at highest ISO than 5D3, and ofcourse the fps is something not to close eyes about, sure there are things might 5D3 be winner, but at the end, what are you looking for? If you can't afford 1DX and want 5D3 to beat 1DX in all aspects then you did a crime for us, i should go with 5D3 instead then.

what lens are you shooting with?

EF 300mm f2.8L IS, i don't think i want to use 70-200 mkII, but that second lens is always as a backup in my bag.

Well stick it on f2.8, 1/1000 and let the iso take care of itself

Ok

Tareq wrote in post #15328729
Ok

and dont forget under floodlights to stick it on auto white balance

And post some images after you are done, Tareq.

Well, i did post from last 2 games and you know what i can do, just this game i might be in many conditions, it is a far stadium, headache with traffic, no food, and some other things that might not make me to shoot at best, but as colors and settings, this will be my third time out with this camera and still i didn't change settings since last 2 games, i mean menus settings and c.fn and such.
