The weather and my schedule finally came together allowing me to catch our local school play. I have not shot baseball with the new (to me) 1dx and 400 2.8 IS combo and I gotta say I really like it. Tell me what you think.

Good stuff here Tim.

Looks like the bad hop got the catcher in number one.

Great face on the base runner in number 2.

Think the equipment manager needs to tighten the laces on the outfielder's glove in number 3.

I really like that shot because I am still wrestling with whether he caught the ball or not (I have decided he DID make the catch...)

The last two are very nice together as they tell the entire story -- although it looks poor number 8 got hit by a bus in the collision. Like the splashing water too.

Keep doing what you are doing. Your photos always do a great job of telling the whole story.

Thanks for the comments Rick...and yes, he made the catch. #8 went for x-rays following the game, but just a bit of soreness and was back in the lineup tonight.

Thanks also for the kind words Jeff and Kenneth. And the last one was my favorite too, Jeff.

Tim...nice work all around with your new combo. The last one is also my favorite. Looking forward to see more with your new toys.

Thanks Frank and CW100.

Herb, about ISO 500 (changing with full sun to setting sun) and about 1/1600 to 1/2500 and 3.5 to 4.0. I think Case 1 AF and center AF points, mostly, but will move them around to get proper framing at times.

Looks great the first and last two are my favorites, and yes, 1DX + 400 are a combo that is very hard to beat.

#2 super sharp Tim! I like them all except #3 where the glove is blocking the OF's face. All in all great stuff that final one is my second favorite and definitely one of those where you hang in and clip off a few more shots and catch one like that!

Just switched over to Canon from Nikon so I may be picking your brain after I start experimenting and learning the differences between the two camera body configurations =)
