A few using new lens
Sep 16, 2019 10:01:49 #
I went to soccer game and shot the game with my D7000 DX and my new 200-500mm f/5.6 lens. I have a lot to learn with this new lens, not use to big size and weight on my monopod. Can't wait until I get my D810 FX back from Nikon repair. I think soccer for me is a little tougher than other sports. Following the ball and getting clear shots is tough. I will work on it though. Hey Jules I shot this game and got home and realized I didn't shoot any vertical shots. The D7000 isn't big enough in pixel size for me to get a 3.000 x 2.216 photo for MaxPreps gallery. DAMN. Let me know what you all think. Thanks

Hi Tom:
Just got finished editing two galleries.
How much are you cropping these?
A little rough at 100%, could be the camera. We will see how the shots are when you get the D810 back.

Can't crop very much, D7000 only shoots so big. Going ro look at your galleries. Thanks

What were your settings Tom? The reason I am asking is for soccer I can stop the action at 1/1600 at 5.6 for the guys and 1/1250 for the girls. Anything higher than that your iso goes up and the quality suffers.

Good morning. One of those days I didn't sleep to late, 3:20AM here. They were almost all shot at 1/1250, f/5.6, @ISO 400. Thanks

Hi Tom:
Maybe it's the camera- lenses combo.

The last pic could have been cropped vertical with no problem.

I must not understand what I am trying to do. When I crop that one the closes I get is 2162 x 3264. 54 short of Max's 2216. Thanks

Tom you have to set in Photoshop or Lightroom your custom crop settings for mp 2216 x 3000. That way it will come up every time while editing pics. I am not to good at computer stuff, I know just the basics. But the custom crop is the way to go.
Try youtube to learn how to use this method. 1/1250 at 5.6 is a good shutter speed and apt. I don't know what is wrong. Soccer is a tough sport to shoot for sure.
Good luck,
Jules
