Olympic Mens road race
I think the last time I shot sport was back in 2010 lol!
The new set up seems to have done ok, im sure theres a fair bit of user error to explain some of the duffers I had etc.
The metering is MILES better than my old mkiin and mkiii. I used to never trust either body shooting in AV/TV modes.
Gave the camera a hard workout over the weekend covering 5 music events + this road race. I need to tweak the colour presets for my music work but I am very happy with the results. flash is much more consistent AF in low light is miles better (I ditched my ST-E2 which i used as AF assist on the 1diii)
Olympic road race (as a spectator)
Thought this one the light from the motorbike may have caused issues but happy with the results

Trying to mix things up a touch, panning needs work again (or just not to be getting pushed over when trying to do so)

Ads I love it more than the GF (dont tell her that though lol)..
Yes the second pic with the lighting the camera handled the headlights fantastically, I may have touched it a slight in PP but I know that the original files were pretty incredible with how it didnt suddenly screw the exposure.
