Great shots. I would love to be able to shoot nba games sometime in the future being such a big fan of the sport.

Good luck with getting more experience and hopefully being able to shoot the 'other' LA team one day.

wow these are amazing! i go through thousands of nba shots by my local team photographer and these are on par with him! (at least the ones in the thread)

these are really good and would fool me if these were on getty as an everyday pro!

gives me hope that i can get my 70-200 onto the floor someday and get some shots close to these :D

what media outlet are you shooting for?

Wow, these are great!! I have always wanted to try taking photos of the Lakers, Clippers, or even Kings in action... Just out of curiosity, how would one get a press credential, even for only one day?

thanks! you need to be associated with a publication, then make a contact with each teams media relations dept.

WOW great shot, loving that Joe Johnson around Eric Gordon. Joes face is what makes it for me.

thanks.

my keeper rate is about 20-25% with the 5D2. i know it's not the best for sports and tracking, but i'm makin' it work. i do crave getting 8-10 fps, these guys can move fast!

i am working on my editor to get me a 1d4 soon!
