will flash distract them?

 

[sequitur]

yes flash will distract them.

gymnastics is quite a precision sport requiring high amounts of concentration. my friend was a gymnast before and he said it sorta sucked when people flash at you while you're doing a stunt.

anyway usual advice is that you don't use flash for all sports.. especially if you're using a powerful flash or you're really too near to affect their performance.

Oh my ... then we'll need really fast lenses.. hmm.. Might have to invest in a 2.8 :think:

To all concerned,
As this is an Interschool event, do expect the all rounds(21st) to be conducted in the morning. And as for the finals scheduled on the 23rd, time will be comfirmed later next monday(14th).

will flash distract them?

No. I was formerly a Rhythmic Gymnast.Flash used in artistic gym will distract, but not in RG as per gymnast performs her routines with appratuses such as ball, clubs, ribbons, rope and hoop, so distraction is minimal. Morever, the lighting is bright. But you MUST remember to keep out of the Judging table and keep an arm's length away from the arena.

So as long as your consumer cam gives you a minimal aperature of F2.8, I suppose it should be okay. With regards to lighting, there shouldn't be any problem so as long as they don't change the venue.
