I've been asked to take photos of kids playing baseball/T-ball (Little League) next spring and am looking for suggestions on where to stand and ideas on what parents like to see. Whether I will be able to move around or not is something I don't know although I was told I can stand in or near the dugout.
My lens/cameras include the 70-200mm f/2.8, a 1.4x teleconverter, 24-70mm f/2.8, 85mm f/1.8, and both DX and FX. Which combo(s) might work best as I'm not familiar with the size field so have no idea of the distance between the kids and where I will stand. Granted a shallow DOF would be best, but would that be f/2.8, or is stopping down closer to f/5.6 a better idea? And I know a fast shutter speed is required for action. I may have to practice with BBF since I'm not too fond of it for what I generally photograph.
Any ideas or suggestions please especially with focal length and aperture?
