p.1 #1 · Coach Pitch LLBB


Trolling around last Saturday and stop by a local field, never shot Baseball so I thought I'd give it a try. Through the fence using 120-300 sport mounted to a 1D X, only was there for a short period as some T-Storms rolled in. Any CC is appreciated.

1) Watching it into the Glove - missed the focus by a hair.

2) A young Babe going for the fence.

3) A tad late on the shutter

4) A tad early

Next time I'm shooting on continous high

Thanks for looking.

That's a combo I'd like to shoot with. I like #4 best.

Some nice results for your "baseball drive-by." Tim's right on the money. Number 4 is your best here.

Thanks, I need to work on both timing and positioning for the shots.

When shooting through the fence, you'll get some quirky white balance and contrast issues. Such is the case here. #2 is right on in terms of IQ. 1,3,4 need a pinch in the levels and some color corrections.

I would've agreed with Rick, except for the obvious missed-focus issue here. That red hat and white top should be much sharper. Somehow, your camera locked on the kid with the bat.

Hey Tom,

Nice series here.

Where were you located for image #2 ?

Were you located outside the outfield fence ?

If so, did you use any T/C (extenders) ?

Again, nice series.

Sincerely,
Randal

Thanks and I did but failed to update the links, they just seemed flat.

Randal - Yes only one I posted from outside the the left field fence, had the Canon 1.4 TC Mk III at 420 and cropped.

Mr. Duffy,

You are a seriously funny man. I nearly fell off the anchor desk while reading that comment. Unbelievably funny.
