I went to shoot some basketball and using the D4 for 90% of the shots I was pleased at some of the work. I used the D500 for just under the basket.
Happy New Year to all.

D4
1/640 at 2.8
I used the 300 2.8 on a monopod for a couple.
Under the basket only used 50mm 1.8

I also used Topaz Denoise Ai on almost all shots, and using Topaz Sharpening on some too. The two programs work well in my opinion.

WOW! Who says you can't shoot basketball. Very nice shot Jules. I really would like to use some kind of DeNoise program. How is Topaz to use, can an old fart like me learn how to use it? Thanks. Keep posting. HAPPY NEW YEAR my friend. May this new year be an excellent one for you and your wife. For your health and you're photography. BE SAFE!!!

Happy New Year Tom to you and your family.

Topaz Denoise and sharpen is simple to use. I don't use the sharpen much but they are both wonderful programs and very easy to use.
