I've enjoyed capturing images of figure skating. The sport features amazing athletes in colorful costumes in a competitive environment. In addition, it gives me a chance to use one of my favorite lenses...the Nikon 200 f2!

I set the exposure manually at 1/800th seconds, f/2, ISO 2,000. I went with 21 point dynamic auto focus. Many of these pictures are uncropped...or cropped very little. The D850 performed magnificently--nearly every picture was sharp...and the noise was very manageable. My only regret was that 1/800th was just a bit too slow for some of the action. It was fine for many images, but I could have used a higher shutter speed for the faster spins. That being said, I would have had to increase my ISO...
Thanks for looking...
