Yeah, Jeff, the camera does focus very well. One less thing I can blame on equipment and have to blame on myself. :)

Lacrosse looks like it would be a real challenge to photograph. It also looks like it would be a ton of fun! Nice job!

I do so many birds in flight and what I've found is that at 10 fps with something moving towards me, I can get 6 of 10 frames sharp. I could say that this is unacceptable, or I could say that this is 4 frames per second more than I'd get from anything else that didn't put me in bankruptcy. Left to right it's brilliant, and in situations where 3D is almost necessary in other bodies it's more than darn good. In normal single shot situations? It's almost always my fault when it misses.

Woody, it was a lot of fun and I think it was easier being up in the stands because it is so quick and fast moving. I also liked the fact I was sitting down and it was much easier on my knees. The more I use this camera the more impressed I am with it.
