Night Sports Action Pictures? Blurry or Grainy?????

The lighting isn't that great as it's a private soccer club and not stadium lighting. I was shooting in RAW and had bumped my ISO setting around from 200 to 800, You can up the ISO to 1600 and underexpose one or two stops, then push in post processing. You'll want some intelligent noise remover, though. That should give you a better chance for fast enough shutter speed and may even let you stop down a tiny bit. At least try it and then evaluate the results at your usual viewing/print size. bumped the shutter speed around between 60 and 320, 1/60s is often too slow already for people who don't move much --- and unless you are very good at holding the camera steady, your 90mm lens on a 1.5x crop camera indicates you should shoot faster than 1/125s. and toyed with most stuff I could try, but the shots would either come our grainy (too high an ISO setting?) or blurry (too slow a shutter speed). Grainy you can live with, blurry you cannot. -Wolfgang |

No, make that some real brownies: http://www.manzi.org/pix/7dfb3.jpg #81 ran a nice route on a "meet me at the corner" play. The ball was a little high but we went up high and caught it. Nice play. |

Excellent, Bowser, just what I meant about a little occasional blur adding to the shot. True, and I got the slight hand and foot blur when the receiver moved from sun to shadow, and ths shutter speed dropped. I usually shoot aperture-preferred. As you can tell, I have no artistic ability, so I usually go for the frozen moment shots. Parents love 'em... |
