This night was Senior Night at the Mt. Olive field. The seniors and parents looked so proud and they really should be. It is very impressive to see how these kids play. They play so hard and such intesity. Above all, they play as a team.
I got a lot of keepers this night too. My technique is getting much better; as I have to really rely on my abilities to pan on a monopod. It is tough to get crisp shots at 1/250th @ 200mm. But I’m getting more and more. I know there are a lot of posts about the Mark III’s focusing and there are times I wonder about the results myself. However, when your focusing in bad lighting on a team that is wearing all black or all white, I’m not sure if any camera is much better.
The next game is a Saturday afternoon. So depending on the weather, I excited about not having to use ISO 6400. I must say that the quality of this ISO on the 1D Mark III is outstanding!
Here are a couple of my favorite images from the game.
Hi Ed! Love the blog. Your shots are great! I really like the b&w one you posted here. I’ll be checking back for more. =)
Thanks Jen
