[QUOTE="Krs_2007, post: 483217, member: 12948"] I shoot sports in manual mode, but he was asking about the lens. On few occasions will I use Auto-ISO, thats typically changing light, if its steady then I control the ISO. I also shoot way above 800 at times. As far as metering, I dont like Matrix and not even sure what Highlight is, never heard that. I use spot metering because the subject is the primary focus and I won't metering to be done there. You have spot, center weighted and Matrix metering modes and from my experience spot and centered weighted work best. It works for me and I shoot a lot of sports pictures with no complaints. I keep it in manual for full control, but I wasn't going to get into that part of what I do. Just making recommendations and explaining Another option between spot and center weighted is the metering will follow the active focus point in spot, but not in center weighted. [/QUOTE]
