03-18 Firebirds vs Charlotte
Mar 19, 2023 17:18:43 #
Firebirds keep plugging away to beat Charlotte. They currently sit in first place at 5-1! Solid play all around. I will note the refs were not at their best, and one got a case of thin skin with several technicals called on Raleigh and even one ON THE CROWD! Wow! Anyway, a few from the game.

Shot with a Z9 paired with a 24-70 f2.8 at 1/1000th wide open with ISO ranging from 4000-6400. A bit of a milestone weekend - I surpassed 100,000 images taken with my Z9! Guess I'll keep it! LOL!

This was the begining of the memorable play I've seen at ANY level. Ball handler was running full speed, and passed the ball through his legs BACKWARD to a trailing teammate who went in for a layup!!

Well, I was focused upon him bringing the ball down court. Then he just happened to do that pass, between his legs, behind him to a trailing player who took it in for a layup. The best play *I* have ever seen at any level. I was just following him and that 20 fps caught the key moment of the pass. It was just one of those moments in which you think Wow - I actually caught that!!!

Excellent series Rick! I'm now a believer for the 24-70mm f2.8 looking at your action shots. I hope to purchase that lens before the fall (volleyball) for my Canon.

The 24-70 f2.8 works well for me as I am positioned under the basket. For my volleyball stuff, the 70-200 f2.8 is my go to lens. The 24-70 works pretty good when I am close courtside. Consider where you will be able to set up for volleyball. But that being said, I really like th 24-70!
