I was granted access to shoot some basketball for the
Milton High School girls. It's been a year since I shot
any sports, and really odd seeing them play in masks.
Can't wait until they start playing volleyball and hockey
again too!
Nikon D750 with the Tamron G2 70-200 at f2.8 1/500
and auto iso - usually around 2500 or so. I shot
these in low res jpegs, pretty much straight out
of the camera with just cropping to get them
out the school and parents quickly.
Jules, I see you picked up a D500 - how do you like it?
I picked a used one up also, mainly for birds in flight.

Don’t think I’ve ever seen a basketball photo isolated to a “swish” shot. I relly like that one.

Always had a D500 for the last 4 yrs. Picked up a D4 two yrs. ago. The only thing I have bought lately was a 50mm af-s

These shots are darn good my man. I may buy another D500, my old one has 235,000 clicks on it.

Thank you! I shot another game last night and tried out the D500 with the tamron G2 70-200 f2.8 with and without the 1.4x teleconverter. Worked great! Now I won't feel bad when I sell the D750. I'll post them in a minute.

Fabulous reportage skylark... Superb pivotal moments wonderfully captured...
Totally epic documentation that Basket Ball is indeed a full contact sport...
Social distancing decidedly wasn't an option here.
Thinking those teams need to have "School Color" matching masks...
And maybe with their team's mascot imprinted :) Love it!
Keep up the good work and please stay safe... Hoping you're wearing a mask also!
