Thank you Don. Appreciate it. I will be shooting softball Tuesday and Thursday baseball.
Playoffs coming up in a month. On the 18th of April I will shoot (a client wants me there to shoot her son) at The Ballpark a new stadium for Double A ball. (I think).

More of your great work Jules. Did you have to have the ISO that high to get your 1/3200 shutter speed even with a bright sunny day?

Hi Don:
I stand corrected. On many of the shots my iso is at 2000, 2500, etc. 1/3200 at 6.3 is this shot.
I ran the photos with high iso through Topaz Denoise to soften the iso. Your to smart for me. Your so right though.
The second shot is 1/3200 at 6.3 iso is 900.

Hi Paul.
Thanks for looking and commenting. Looking for the sports illustrated shot. I better hurry though I think they are going out of business.

Nice day out, no wind about 75 degrees.
Nikon D4 paired with a 200-500 5.6.
A few shots taken with a D500 paired with a 80-400 but still I am not happy with the focus at 400mm, so I don't use it much. The lens is perfect on the D4. Go figure.

Hi Gang:
Sorry for the delay on being on here but been super busy shooting softball and baseball.
These shots were taken with a Nikon D4 paired with my trusty 200-500 5.6 lens.
1/3200 at 5.6 to 6.3
Auto white balance
Auto iso (usually around 500-1000)
Nice sunny day with no clouds.

I’d like to ask which of these photos would a sports publication prefer? This is Caitlin Clark launching a 3 point shot. Hopefully, Jules will weigh in.
These were taken from the bleachers with a Sony RX 10 IV so they aren’t the quality I could get with a better camera and lens but I can’t take anything better in.

I like the third shot the best. Your hands are kind of tied being in the stands. Close to the game is ideal but you did well anyway. Good stuff.

Now we're talking John. Nice and close, see the face, the ball. Great stuff. Let that action come to you.

Indoor football game 2 under my belt. I'm finding the biggest challenge is learning my way around the arena! Most shot at Nikon Z9, 70-200 f2.8 Z, 1/1000, ISO 4000, f3.5, but individual details may be viewed in the photo captions. Even broke out the backup Z6 for the "in close" shots. Fun getting out to photograph this sport again!
The last shot is my favorite, although there all very good. Me I would try going to 1/1600 or 1/2000 at wide open. Those Z cameras can handle the higher iso. Just my opinion for whatever it's worth.

I used the Nikon D500 with a 80-400 but at 400mm lost focus. I re-calibrated the lens with the camera yesterday and will try this combo today again. Hope it's better. Great combo for plays at second base or home. Something isn't right. Any suggestions will be helpful.

I do understand. Try to have the players coming at you to fill the frame. When your ready for a 2.8 always consider used. All the lenses are bought used.
Good luck rangerjohn.
