Man It is evident that I have not shot in awhile, Been doing too much traveling for vacation sake.

Last night there was another game from across town rivals that I covered for the school. (I currently shoot for multiple booster clubs in the area). Anyway, Last nights game was pretty decent. Went Very Fast. Here is the lighting set up because I know people will ask:

2b800s mid court- aimed toward walls/ceilings @ full power

This set up works the best for whatever reason even though they are not the typical results you see for a boys basketball game.

Here they are:

*All of these shots were shot with the 1dmkIIn- I am still getting used to and setting up the mkIV to how I like it and since this was a paid gig I just grabbed the mkIIn and went at it. All shots have been edited slightly- Exposure+contrast, not sharpening at all.

Yep, just a tad hot. Perhaps 1/3 to 1/2 stop.

The pluses and minuses to having white walls to bounce off of. A touch too much on the exposure.

Not a technical comment--I think the expression on the face of the cheerleader in no. 4 is funny.

Maybe the large white walls weren't doing you any favors, either. They appear a tad hot and washed out on my monitor as well.

I like the shots you chose. Always try to get the guys coming off the lane for during free throws as well. Always great shots for the kids.

And yeah, shooting sports isn't like riding your bicycle. Rust gets on the camera quickly!
