More Utah Cyclocross

**Photo-John** · 10-22-2010, 06:25 PM

Here are some more photos from last week's Salt Lake City cyclocross race. I wanted to share these before they get buried and forgotten. Plus, I'm going to shoot cyclocross racing again tomorrow and I wanted to stoke the fires a bit. A huge storm is rolling into Utah overnight and hopefully that means mud! Cyclocross just isn't complete without gooey, messy, gritty mud. Psyched

These were all shot with the Olympus E-5 DSLR I had for testing. I had to send it back this week but I am working on a complete review. The image quality is definitely improved over previous Olympus digital SLRs and the auto focus performed much better than I expected. I am impressed. It still wouldn't be my first choice for a sports camera. But it can definitely handle action photography. No need to have any doubts about that anymore.

For more info on the Olympus E-5, you can see my preview video and article here: http://reviews.photographyreview.com...p-digital-slr/

Stay tuned for mud!!!!!

the Funny part I find about just about any cyclocross photo's is no one ever shows them actually riding there bikes.

i dont know anything about the sport, but the compositions look pretty good to me. except the last one. i guess it's the mixed lighting and i just cant read anything into it.
