[QUOTE="Don Kuykendall_RIP, post: 197509, member: 6277"] I shot some with my D5100 and a much higher ISO and was very pleased with the results. I think in cases like high school football that the content is what is important and not so much the technical we all tend to look at every day. Also looking at the target market. Moms and dads are only looking at their son playing or their daughter cheering. As long as you can read the number or see the face you are doing good. Also have you seen people at these games shooting with their cell phones? They are happy with what they are shooting. Can you imagine how excited they would be to see what great photos you are getting? Sometimes I think we are all to hard on our own shooting. I am not saying that we should not keep trying for perfection but occasionally just kick back and shoot something just for fun (like high school football) My wife teaches high school and we have been going to the games for over 25 years now. I carry my camera to a few early games and try and get shots of the players and cheerleaders that are in her classes and print them and put them on the walls in her class room. The kids love it.
