Well...let me first say that I think my D90 and the lens I was complaining about last night got together and decided to pull a fast one on me. They showed me today a glimpse of what they can do.
I am very impressed with the D90, I love it. Today was really my first time doing real live action shots, mixed with using AF-C. I think I actually nailed a few, and I am quite pleased. I missed often, but when I didn't....man...was it cool.
Here are 6 of my favorites I ran through real quick. I have a lot more to cull. I will revisit to rethink crops and possibly cloning out that stupid flag.
I will say one thing about the 80-200, while it performed well today, I am noticing a lot of CA, so much that photoshop can't even fix with lens correction. Usually it is at or near the 200mm range. Kinda sucked, but it is what it is.
Here is the set if you wanna see larger pictures.

I'll say again that I am totally impressed with the D90's ability for fast action actuations (I think I got wood a few times when I heard that fast action shutter pops 5-6 at a time) and the dead on balls accuracy of the AF-C.
I wish I had this light during the freestyle dirtbikers, I would have loved this sort of action on them. But it was night by then, I think I got a few though, will post up tomorrow...I'm tired.
This one is, I think, my absolute favorite. I fuking nailed this one. The composition could have used some work, but focus...nailed that mother, in mid action no less. I'm happy.
