Nice shot. I'd try to brighten it up a bit. My son also plays in a poorly-lit gym with grey walls. I took a different approach. I put the K20 at ISO 1600, strapped on the Sigma 30mm f1.4, and plunked my butt down on the floor at one end. The DoF on that lens is a joke, so I didn't try to get fancy, just got a good manual-focus on the area under the basket, tried to keep the shutter speed upwards of 1/100, and held down the "fire" button for a few scrambles. Some of them came out OK, for example http://www.tbray.org/rbl/2009-11-27/content/PS087341_large.html The Lightroom slide-show is at http://www.tbray.org/rbl/2009-11-27/ - the blur you get at 1/100 is actually nice in some of these. -Tim -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
