What he likes to get is the ball coming off the bat, and 5fps isn't fast enough for him. Hmmm. Hmm indeed. This shot was with the LX (pretty sure the winder was on, but there are no before or after shots on the negative strip so I know it was a single press of the shutter button): http://www.skofteland.net/displayimage.php?album=12&pos=0 LX, Sigma AF 300/4 APO macro. Exposure infor unrecorded. Tri-X > We discussed 'trap focus' as a useful feature, like catching slides. He'd never heard of it. ;) >From the same day as the shot above, I have a two-frame sequence of a runner sliding into 2nd, just as the in-fielder is throwing the ball to first for a double play. I'll upload those two shots if anyone is interested. Christian.
