ah the joys of shooting poorly lit indoor horse comps.. still, other than the first two are quite high up in the frame they pretty good for the conditions
watch out at Merrist Wood though, i heard last photographer they had packed up for good as people were constantly ripping off his photos..
That's right Neil. He's out of the photography business altogether. Too many people ripping off from his web. I've found plenty of my watermarked thumbnails on Facebook !
good pics in challenging conditions. Did some for a friend at an indoor arena last weekend, cant really go above 1600 on the D300s, which even at f2.8 only gave 1/160th which was not fast enough. Would have killed for a D700 @ 6400!!!! Of course using the 70 - 200 wide open means minimal depth od field compounding the problems. Happily my next show is outdoors!!!
what to do about people ripping off photos? really dont know, many horse people I know just want a pic up on facebook until the next event. they dont care if its watermarked, or poor quality, quite a few use their phones to take a picture from the proofs!
Bottom line is I dont think people value photos like they used to.
with the D90 (same sensor) I find anything above 1600 just too grainy. Will give it a bash at 3200 and 6400 by Im not confident!
OK just taken a couple of pics indoors at 6400 ISO. Bit of work in lightroom to reduce noise and its pretty good - thanks for the prod!. Oh well next time..........
