Who are these "Wells Fargo Trail Blazers?"

Awesome pix!

Who are these "Wells Fargo Trail Blazers?"

Oh, didn't you hear? Wells used Obama bailout money to buy the Blazers from Paul Allen. It's called "investment marketing"--cheaper than traditional advertising, and it can be recorded on the balance sheet rather than simply as an expense. It's all the rage!

Nice pics! Good job. I'm strictly a point and shoot currently, but some of those pics are very clear and detailed. I imagine the Nikon 5000 is a pretty good camera?

 

[BoBoBREWSKI]

^ Yes, the Nikon 5000 is a very nice camera.

Awesome pix!

Bonzi bought the team from PA, and he's moving them to North Dakota.

Go Blazers

Nikon5000 is a pro camera. With a zoom lens, you could take pro pictures.

Although I hear that's a notoriously hard field to crack.

Jesus don't even joke about that, that would make living in Fargo a good thing.

Thanks for the pics. They are good

Becks with the stripper shoes



Looks like they're about 2 sizes too small

:uncool:

Thanks for sharing your pics!!

I noticed that you have very few "action shots" of the game. Most of your game pictures are of players standing or walking, rather than running or driving to the basket. Is that because the low light and telephoto lens prevented you from using a fast shutter speed?

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

MORE PICS OF HAARLOW.

 

[OddEnormous]

MORE PICS OF HAARLOW.

Agreed.

There should be at least 3 candid well focused full frame Becks shots.

Very disappointed to be honest.

 

[Rodolfo]

I got this camera a month ago!

What lens did you take those pics with?

Honestly it was because I'm still learning, and I was using just the general functions, got the 55-200mm and the Nikon5000 just a week ago, and I have a lot of reading to do to learn how to get the great shots that I know I can get out of this camera, also because I knew the action shots would be blurry I usually just watched during most of the fast movement! Was a great game to just watch and enjoy and not worry about us losing!

55-200mm with the anti-shake thang.

55-200mm with the anti-shake thang.

nice man.

So with the action shots you're going to want to raise the shutter speed up a little. Probably 1/250 at least.

check this stuff out.

Nice camera. Here are some other configuration and prices located here.

What setting do you use to shoot in then?

 

[Rodolfo]

What setting do you use to shoot in then?

All i'm doing is raising the shutter speed. All you have to do is go to shutter priority mode. Those water shots are all done with 1/160. Experimenting is the best way to see what works best. Remember you're shooting with a digital camera so don't worry about wasting shots.

 

[Shooter]

All i'm doing is raising the shutter speed . . .

Yes, but your subject is only about a foot away. When you're shooting with a telephoto lens, in a dimly lit sports arena, you're not going to be able to use a super-fast shutter speed. Those guys who get the great NBA photos for Sports Illustrated are sitting on the sideline, and much closer to the players than Bosco in his $35.00 seat up in Section C.

Someone had a shot rollin' around the rim and I think someone messed with it on purpose.
