Hockey at 400mm

2/1/2015

So this post is actually on last weeks game where the Bobcats faced the Brookings Blizzard, and I'll have a separate short one for this weeks game.

So last weekend I ended up using only my Nikon 200-400mm f/4 lens, and took photos from up above the bleachers. Surprisingly, the 200-400 felt a bit too long, even considering I was using my Full-Frame D4 from a good distance away. So for that game I focused a lot more on getting really tight shots. This one was probably my best shot of the entire game, a really good save by the Bobcat's Goalie.

Even though I had 400mm available to me, I found that I was shooting around 250-300 a lot, which was good that I had that, as when I was just using my 70-200 in previous games it was not long enough for shots like this. So even though it is massive and heavy I am glad that I brought it and will probably end up using it for future games.

Now where the 400mm was really useful was to shoot down all the way to the other end of the arena. I got a pretty good save here from the very opposite corner shooting pretty much parallel to the ice. Also apparently this is a very Goalie-centric post at this point.

I'll just put up a quick gallery with the rest.
Thanks for reading, Hockey is fun!
