...particularly boxing. Im currently purusing a photography project with boxing gyms and as most of you know, boxing gyms/fights are poorly lit with fairly rapid action, probably a photographer's nightmare.
I was shooting with a Nikon D40 but am looking to upgrade to a D50. The one problem I had was the lighting. I mean besides upping the ISO, slowing the shutter speed or using a larger aperature, what other techniques can you use to let in more light?
I'm not a big fan of flash photography (mostly because I have no clue how to do it correctly), so I'd prefer to go without it. I've read on the forum that people suggest changing lenses but I have really no idea where to start. Could photographers that have more experience in this field recommend me some lenses for a D50 (keeping in mind that I am traveling so I need to keep my luggage relatively light) or general tips?
Thanks!
