more midget (high school) hockey

Steve --

shooting hockey is fun, hope you enjoy. See >>>this<<<https://photography-on-the.net ….php?p=771378&p​ostcount=6 With an f4 lens, chances are you'll be at ISO3200, which is OK if you get the exposure right. Keep your shutter speed up. Good luck.

DavidEB, I play for a Raleigh independent team "18U Raleigh storm" we are technically a AA team, but since we play quite a few AAA teams, i like to give ourselves the recognition lol.

spectators with little point & shoots use flash all the time from the stands.

I always wonder what kind of pics they get with the flash reflecting off the glass.

David-

Thank you. I just read your post on how to shoot indoor action. Yikes, that is a little much for my first time. I guess I will just chalk it up to learning, but I doubt I will get any good shots. I have a 70-200 f4L and kit lens. My 400D is not capable of 3200 iso. I would be happy if I could at least get one or two good shots even if they are not even close to perfect. I'd like to make some poster size prints just for fun.

you can get by with slower shutter if you stick to face-offs, goalie shots, and D's regrouping with the puck -- they stand still then.

good luck,

Hi Dave,
That was great info. I just got a Sigma 70-200 lens for my Canon Eos 10D. I just used it today for the first time. I did get some good shots, but not as many as I hoped to. Your info will greatly help. I have 2 more games to shoot tomorrow. Hopefully I'll have some good pics to post.

Thanks
Steve

I shoot hockey all the time, but do not come close to the quality of your shots...congrats!they are sharp and the colour is amazing.
WOW
