Basketball Lens
Recommendations & Tips:- Daylight Lens - 70-500 mm is ideal
- Under-the-Lights Lens - f2.8 is what you need, at least 70-200mm
- Under the lights you'll need ISO 1600 to 3200 and higher.
- Use the lowest ISO that will get you 1/250 sec. or faster shutter speed (ideally 1/500 or faster)
- Try to anticipate where the next shot will be and focus on that location.
