I have to design a postcard for the local chamber. I think I might go to our dinky downtown and use this idea as the front of the card.

not a dip

i hate you for getting to shoot in a gym like that, my schools gym is a photo nightmare. Dark, no real windows, and banks of yellow lights, and then even yellower lights. It is a nightmare to color correct and get a decent exposure.


Photos look good though. I usually shoot from the right side of the hoop just because most players are right handed and I seem to get more faces in my shots that way.

[infinital]

thanks man! yeah our gym is pretty sweet, but i still have to use ISO 5k at 2.8 to get 1/320th.. and it's bright. so i pity the guy who has to shoot in anything darker

next time i go out i'll check out the right side of the hoop i don't know much about basketball, i just shoot what looks cool

edited my post with 2 more

i usually shoot 3200 or 4000, 2.8 and get 1/320 or 1/400. I usually underexpose 2/3 of a stop then boost in post if necessary. I shoot sports from the opponents end, and right side most of the time, because that is where I have had the best results. For basketball, i like to shoot either under the hoop or in the corner, and then at the gym I shoot at, there is a balcony above the one hoop and I have had good results shooting down onto the hoop from the right side.

[infinital]

ah okay. i'm exposing correctly, or maybe a 1/3rd over so that's why i'm up that high. I wonder how much latitude the raw file has for boosting in post.

I've been switching sides with the periods but i usually chill with the cheerleaders under the net with a wide or a 50, and in the back corner with an 80-200 like you said. in the back corner i found i can get good midcourt shots with faces.

your exposures look fine, i underexpose to keep the uniforms from blowing out from the super direct lighting.

Just got back from New York City. Have some more to post, don't feel like doing it right now.

Damn, I feel fortunate. I can shoot 1/150th-1/200th@iso 1600 with my 70-200 F4 L wide open. There's a women's game tomorrow night, I might go shoot it.

[Sabre]

1/150 - 1/200 is not nearly fast enough... You absolutely need 1/320, bare minimum. I usually shoot faster than that.
