[QUOTE="stmv, post: 70516, member: 10038"] you should be fine with the range, try not to get too close to the action, so you have time to react. Consider a monopod to control your pan. Play with the exposure control to see how sharp you can get the subject and still blur the background, and then vary (speed up the setting) and do freeze frames. Use it as a learning exercise. Include bystanders if they are reacting to the action, etc. Also, as the evening approach,, see if there are any lamp post near by, use the artificial light in place of the flash, up the ISO to say 1600, and you should be able to still capture the night shots too without the flash, depending on your placement. Take your time finding your optimimum spot, get their so you can stake out your area, tripod in this case. final advice. have a blast. [/QUOTE]
