This is my work's social team.

I've have not shot this, or basketball before for that matter, it was a bit different for a change

All shot with D300 and either 50 1.8 or Sigma 50-150 at ISO anywhere between 1600 and 2000

Great capture of the action....Looks like they are playing hard out to me..takes the fun out of social in my mind..

Reasonable pix in terms of the action.

However, these photos seem to be a tad overexposed, particularly in comparison to your earlier soccer work. I realise that we are seeing a totally different environment for photography, but these are too brightly lit for me. I thought your earlier sports shots were excellent.

And I hate the frames. But that is a totally subjective verdict - I seem to have a pre-programmed negative reaction to all frames.

Thanks for the feedback, I guess the frames might be a bit passe. Ta

Re the exposure, bit of a test here for me to push exposure a little right than what I might do normally - not quite to blowing highlights which I think is OK here ?

I am experimenting a little with the noise at these sorts of quite high ISO with the theory being avoid underexposure at all costs. I did shoot these in RAW so I'll look at ratcheting exposure down a tad, thanks again.

very nice mate! seems a bit bright though...first time i've ever had to say that for a Nikon indoors

great stuff though and keep it up. incidentally, some of the guys should keep their pants up as well...
