Thanks,
I was using a Nikon D50 and a sigma 70-200mm F2.8, and thats all I have bar a 2x teleconverter. I must get the 28-70 f2.8 sigma next. |

:shock: I have a D80. My next purchase will be the Nikkor 80-200 f/2.8 and Nikkor 18-70 f/2.8. If your photos came out like that...! :O Does the converter affect the quality, at all? |

Rallies aren't really my cup of tea, so I can't say from experience - but these look really good to me. Nice and sharp, you've caught some good action and good color.
Nice job! My only criticism is that watermark is really annoying. I know we all have to protect our images. but it's right over top the main subject - so for posting in forums it's pretty distracting. But the images themselves look great. |

Thanks for the comments.
The teleconverter does reduce quailty butI still think its much higher quaility than you will get with a cheaper lens. The aufo focus speed does go down a bit but if you need the extra reach sometimes, its great. I might get a 1.4 on for it too. Sorry about the watermark, I just started printing out photos at some events, and loads and loads of people said that thet could just print them on from the site. So had to do something, I know its in a bad spot, but they will still probably be happy out printing them. As for setting, I did a mix of high shutter speeds and low panning shots. I wanted to get Loeb and so on, so with the higher speed was setting to camera to around f4 or 5 to keep them sharp. Then down the field I used 1/125. I adjusted curves slightlyin photoshop to bring up a few photos from the weekend. Like the one of Loeb in the C4. |
