[QUOTE="NVSteve, post: 219383, member: 13248"] Well, I can give you an answer to that, but not until next month. The US speedskating Olympic Trials are at the end of December & I have tickets in hand. What I can say is that I've shoot speedskating before, along with gymnastics, with the Nikon 70-200 f4. The f4 did a fantastic job with no problems, but I really need that extra stop. Since the f4 has done so well, I'm assuming my Tamron f2.8 will do even better. On an off note, a friend of mine decided to get married over the weekend (24 hour notice) and I ended up shooting it for him. With indoor events, I usually have everything locked down & never fiddle with any of the settings. This wedding was a bit different because it was right as the sun was setting, with both movement and non-movement. I really need to remind myself to up the shutter speeds in these situations because I did get a bit of blur, although I took enough pictures that ultimately I did also have enough that were sharp, or at least sharp enough for him. Before the wedding, I was wandering around with the 24-120 and am still very impressed with that lens. Anyway, here is one from the wedding using the Tamron (nobody wanted their faces out on the net):[IMG]http://farm6.staticflickr.com/5549/10865150793_5c9f89d1d0_o.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
