    What a Difference a Gym Makes
    Hey, folks I got called an hour before the start of a basketball game, that was 45 minutes away. So saddle up, my wife and I drove through tornado's, hail, and heavy rain to get there. Well I was in hurry up mode to get in and get out so that I could get back home out of the storm and get my pics up on the web.

    Still a bit dark but much better, you sure your aperature is open all the way? What shutter speed are you using?
    . I'll have similar lighting Friday night. I'll be at 1600, 200 f2.8

    I was using 1600 iso 400 shutter and f2.8, that is why it's a lil dark, but much better than lebanon, where I shoot tonight.

    That gym didn't have a light problem I just shot with too fast a shutter speed, tonight I return to the dungeon, I have a feeling we are going to be at 1600 iso, 1/160 or 1/125 shutter speed, and of course f/2.8, I hope that is going to work, or I might just rent a spot light like they use for car lot sales and just roll from there. ;)

    If you were at 200 you'd have probably gotten them pretty close

    Yea, I know it but you live and learn. My game for tonight was canceled so that means me sitting at home, prob will clean equipment, watch a movie w/ the wife, and dream of the lenses that I want but can't have. ;)
