Fall sports have started. I finally got to test out my D500 under the flickering lights at North Mason. I am quite pleased with it. I shot most of the game at 1/1000. Near the end I dropped down to 1/750 due to what I was seeing in my histogram. My lens was my trusty old 70-200mm f/ 2.8. My other camera was my D7100 with a 17-55 f/2.8 Sigma. I wanted to shoot that combination from the hip, but it just would not focus in the dark. For the post game celebration I put the Sigma lens on my D500 and that took care of the focusing issues.
I really want another D500 as my second camera body now.
The next two days after this game I was sore from running up and down the field and kneeling to take photos. This surprised me as I am in very good hiking condition.
1/750, ISO 128,00 f/2.8
