Hi all, ive posted this in the basics forum but have been recommended to post here too so hope you all dont mind a duplicated thread.
Am going to a martial arts event this coming weekend and am looking forward to trying to get some good shots, however ive never shot an indoor sports event before and am a bit uncertiain of setting to use.
Ive got a Nikon D60 and have a sigma 70-300mm lens and a 18-55mm kit lens to use (might try some wide angled shots with my sigma 10-20mm too) and will probabaly opt to shoot in either shutter priority or manual.
Done a bit of research at lighting conditions at the venue which is the nottingham arena and was thinking of using the following settings:
ISO around 400 - 1600
Fast shutter, say 1000th
widest aperture my lens will go to
Auto white balance (depending on lightings as i havent been there yet)
Shooting in RAW
Ive also got a 360AFD Jessops flash i could use but am a complete novice with it and would have to totally guess on setting if i used it.
Has anyone shot in the Nottingham arena and could give me some advice as to conditions and best settings to use??
Thanks guys
