p.1 #1 · Hockey D3s w/200 f/2.0 VR

Hi,

I shot a high school hockey game yesterday and only used my 200f/2.0 VR with 1.4x and 1.7x. I have a lot to learn about shooting hockey for it is a fast moving sport and my timing is often off. Nonetheless the 200 f/2.0 VR is a great lens.

I typically use my 70-200 f/2.8 VR II but since I wasn't hired to shoot I wanted to play with the 200 mm.

I am amazed how sharp this lens is with both the 1.4 x and 1.7x.

Hey Grant,

Like how #2 almost mirrors the "youth hockey association" sign on the boards. Good planning!?

Grant,

Nice shots! I really struggle with those white masks, I wish they would go with black or better yet grey, they allow for much better view of faces...
