Experiment with the obvious. Tired of autofocus zeroing in on the net, I moved the focal point down a couple of notches and focused on the bigs' thighs and midsections, and then on the servers' feet. #1 and #2 from endline bleachers, #3 from sidelines. All are in 5x7 format for my website.

Three more. #4 and #6 from the sidelines, so the experiment was off for them.

Nice shots & white balance. I like the shots from the endline.

Good focus on all of these. Did you notice a difference in your keeper rate?

Thanks for the kind words, Jeff and Marty.

Marty, I put 38 on the website--usually from a game, it's about 25.

With vball, I end up with lots of duplicates and lots of very inconsiderate players moving right in front of the lens.

Nice work, the white balance looks great and a couple of nice tight action shots.

Wow... what must it be like to have that kind of light? I just shot 10 games on Wed. night and the best I could do was 1/400 @ f2.8 @ ISO6400. :-(

Yeah, John--the light in this gym is about the best in our county. Sounds as if you're shooting in a rebuilt mole tunnel.
