Youth Basketball Tournament (Illinois)

Took these while shooting my brother's team at a tourny in Illinois. Took over 500 photos but thought these turned out the best so far. At first I didn't like the grain of ISO 1600 but for these images I think it works. It give them a little more feeling. Shot all these with 70-200 2.8. pBase is being stupid so i'll attatch direct links also. Let me know what you think.

Neat shots. Like the crop of that first one.

The last one is nice because it leaves a lot to your imagination. Since you cannot see their faces, you have to guess what is being discussed in that huddle.

Yeah, I love #3. I thought about making it b/w but I think the colors stand out.

Nice Shots!

Can you tell me about the camera settings for these shots? ISO, Lens etc.

Thanks

The lens is the 70-200 f/2.8. You can get one by Canon or Sigma(has the better value per dollar).

ISO is 1600. Defintely you'd want f/2.8 to isolate the subjects. And at the very least, you'd want 1/400 for your shutter speed. Adjust accordingly.
