Horrendous news. I had advice from Gary via PM. Honest as the day is long. Not sure how young. Gary was but taken too soon. Best wishes for his family.

I've seen a few peeps at Hull using 200/2 for their short lenses.

Don't get on your high horse just yet but follow admirable's advice.

Everyone here seems to be talking about shooting pitch action and I agree JPG all the way. However a long range shot of Roman Abramovich with his head in his hands in the stands where it is dark - then a slow shutter speed on RAW gives you chance of getting a shot that the papers will print.

I was using a 600/4 earlier in the season. It was great for cele shots at the other end and nice when then ran back towards you. However the 400/2.8 is the way to go. With the 600 your field of view is too narrow and you can't get the whole goal in view at the far end.

Have a look at these. I have used them and they worked really well - Phottix Strato 2 5-in-1 Trigger Set for Canon

I always had iTR AF turned off.

Oh I see

Why so much sensor cleaning?

It's my Equality and diversity training taking over. Women are no more. We are all equal men now :)

Good man.

Tony I showed it to you when I saw you a few months ago. I did it using a network cable going from the camera in to the laptop. Once you figure that bit out you can choose on the camera to download all photos or just the one being viewed by pressing the SET button. That is on a Canon 1D4 or...

If you have a Nikon D4 or a Canon 1Dx then you can just tether and send the images you want. On the 1Dx you can choose the SET button to transfer. So quick review, press SET on the ones you want and hey presto.

Deffo sounded like a driver problem.

The 1Dx 2 could be a year away
