Basket Ball (Leopards team)

by Peter Elgar

Action from a basketball match I was covering for the Brentwood Gazette Sport -- I used my trusty Pentax K10D with a 1980's 50mm f1.7 SMC-A lens mostly at f2. There was a bloke there with a NIKON D3S HUGE camera with a motor winder -- all the stuff, twice as big as my little K10D and never saw him get anything good !! I dis all available light -- several pics published in newspaper later!
