I've been so stinking busy with school that I haven't had much time for CGR as of late...
We had some lights installed over the summer, and have begun having night games. It has truly been a challenge, but has also been an amazing learning experience. My lowly equipment is a 30D with a 300/4L on a monopod, with a 420EX attached near the bottom.
Tonight was the last of our 3 night home games (the next one is a daytime game). I've had many firsts this year with night games. First time to...
push 3200 on the 30D (and the last time)
flash football.
put a flash on a monopod.
really use RAW.
really understand RAW.
try Custom White Balance (tonight)
Its only DIII, and Its only a 30D with a 300/4L AT NIGHT, but I think I did alright for myself. Most of these are at 1600
Any other critique/suggestions would be appreciated. This batch was my first ever to try to use with Lightroom (downloaded the 3.0 beta last night), but I think I did alright
