Thanks a lot!

hey CM!! long time no meet (online)!!! =)

really like #1, but would suggest a tigher crop to something like this (portrait 3:2)... although, not sure if you have enough mp to retain sufficient resolution after such a crop.

may i ask what range (focal length) was the shot taken at? was it cropped? iso? F2.8 bright enough for the indoor stadium? Hoping to go down catch some action today of the semi-finals...

Master, well captured action shots!

[espion]

except for the first - the stretch - all the shots are rather static - no feel of the energy, the power or the motion in the game - eg no mid air shots - all the players' feet are on the ground; oso too tight, does not help to convey motion, feels cramp.

thanks....was wondering because your pics don't look grainy...what cam did you use?

also, if you dun mind, what was your percentage of keepers?

[sumball]

mid air? feet on the ground? Motion blur? I think you are asking for some jumping smash shots? Of course I have them just that I find it rather boring cos they look almost the same unlike when the opponent was doing the smashing, their expression of concerntration is nicer.

Was using 1D2. Well % of keepers? >50%? but some are in sequence because shot in 8fps with AI servo mode.

No doubt, it is a great cam, not only for sport

Thanks! I believe it is more on personal preference.
