Louisville Cardinals vs. Rutgers Scarlet Knights (College Basketball)
These definately aren't pro quality sports shots but I wanted some feedback. A friend of mine had two tickets to this game so I decided to have a go with the camera. I had to zoom in all the way (63 mm -> 380 mm equivalent for 35 mm film camera) to capture anything on the court since I was so far away. Over half the shots were really blurry or had people obstructing the view but I got a handful of decent ones:
Freedom Hall, Louisville, KY. February 2nd, 2008 (Last Saturday).
Louisville Cardinal Mascott
Could have been a good shot had it not been for someone's head in the way
They floated this giant thing around the stadium during half time.
Louisville fast break.
Foul shots...
The fans at the other end of the stadium.
Yes this was a beating...
Final Score: 87-50 Louisville
Not such a great game or seating but it was a pretty good learning experience. This was my first time shooting sports and I completely underestimated the kind of shutter speed I would need. Next time I shoot sports I'll definitely turn up the ISO more and get the fastest shutter speed that I can. Better to get a grainy picture then a blurry one.
