The D5 does Artistic gymnastics

[Tersn]

I took the D5 to a gymnastics competition to shoot some fast sports action with the 70-200/2.8 VR II on. Shot at  1/1000, f/2.8, ISO about 5000, group AF.

Very nice images!


I would have thought the back ground  would be more out of focus at 2.8,,,

I visited your site and enjoyed the gymnastics images, but was knocked out by some of the wildlife.

Thank you! I believe all of my images with that lens were at f 2.8.

Long time no see, Terje!

As you already proved with wildlife images, your reflex nerve shines here!

Thanks for your kind comment. Wish I had the opportunity to shoot gymnastics more frequently.

Thanks for your kind remark, Akira.
I have been very busy recently, but hope to get more time the upcoming year.

Very good images. D5 offers a lot of leberage when it comes to speed.

Thanks. Yes, in particular I find the D5 good at shooting long image series at 12 frames a second. Might eventually be doing some videos with it too.
