Ah, yes, very nice. Fun to see the kids participating. The women look very
fit. Nice pictures there. Looks like the DA 16-45 did just fine for you.
Cheers, Christine

Another sporting event, the first time I've used my new 16-45 lens "in
anger". I must say that zooms are pretty handy.
I got a bit of a fright early on when the camera suddenly locked up and
wouldn't respond. I removed and reinserted the battery and it's been fine
ever since. The weather probably had something to do with that as we had
bouts of light rain and I was mostly keeping the camera under my jacket
after the reset. It was probably better for the athletes than the 35
degrees C we had yesterday.
I've split the photos into two galleries due to the amount. Sorry about
vertical ones being so small, that's been on my todo list for a while. I
might get to look at it during the holiday.
Part 1 (the first 20 pics):

Part 2 (the second 20, mostly elite athletes):

K10D, DA16-45mm f/4 and FA*200mm f/2.8.
The cloudy weather meant most photos were underexposed and I had a tough
job in Photoshop to try and make them look reasonable. I put in some
exposure compensation towards the end which helped... for photos that
didn't make it in :)
Cheers,
Dave
