My son played in his school hosted basketball tourny last weekend. Four other teams showed up for a 15 hour day of pure unseeded games and then two more days of seeded double elemination round robin play. Here are some of the shots....

Surprisingly low noise for 1600.

I may not be the village idiot, but I'll do until

Nice shots - they are not crap!

Your son does seem to enjoy the game.
I like the images - the color is crisp.

I think they are good shots... On my work monitor, the white balance seems off, but that's easily fixed.

Thanks for all the kind comments. I shot a 3x3 tourny this weekend that my kids were in (alng with 50 other teams, not bad for an island community of 11k). anyway, I shot from 5pm to 1am last night and finished working through the pictures this afternnon. I will post some of them on another thread, at least some of them are better then these...lol
