No..it's a part time weekend deal. I have a full time job but I also have a part time photog thing.
err so my super noob skills still need refining quite a bit to get anywhere near, the "good" range.
IM getting better at panning shots, but still gotta work on my lighting compensation, many of these turned out a bit overexposed. i spose PP can help a bit once i get some time to do it.
this was at Subiefest 2010, incredibly bright sunny day...
Here are coupe half decent panning shots. untouched (cept for resize & border i guess).
and a link to the full album: http://picasaweb.google.com/clans.only1way/Subiefest2010#
i shot a variety from ISO 100-200, using AF-C and and manual focus, panning shots turned off VR, and a bit of active d-lighting in still shots with shadow (which turned out kind of dissappointing more than others, lol)
i know its hard to offer tips after the fact and without knowing metadata/conditions for each picture, but just thought id share my progression.

Get a tad lower. The white under her pupils are freaky. She seems to be looking up at you.

Ya I had to. When I print them they don't show up though. So it's all good, but I might have to consider going through them again for a website. Any recommendations on how to make that BG pure white?
just adjust the white point? also, moving the right side of the tone curve up creates less contrast in the "nearly white" part of the photo, which makes the variations in a white background less evident... Just be mindful of the subject and take care not to clip highlights on the people.
Thanks Funky. She was going with a "freaky" look.I'm still learning portrait photography. Much different than shooting cars.
i hear you on portraits being much different than cars, thats what im used to taking pictures of as well. i like the pictures but think the glare in the second picture is a bit distracting

Thanks dude.
helloooooo track day lense!
would be shmexy for shots from the stands
damn that thing its beefy.
I find that I use my Canon EF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 IS USM a lot. Especially at track events, so this would be a perfect upgrade as an all purpose lens for me. Then I'll most likely sell the 70-300.
