Another Women’s basketball PAC-10 match up with the Arizona State Sun Devils, which proved to be exciting till the final seconds. The game ended with the disappointed Women of Troy losing 62-61. I had fun though, since it was the first time I was going to shoot at the Galen Center as well as the availability to set up remotes. There aren’t many different locations that I can setup with limited time but I ended up getting one right in front of me again. But during the first half, some feet got in the way since other photographers, student photographers, don’t really understand that they were in my frame. I got to the Galen Center early so I could get another overview shot, just a reminder of where I’ve been.

I decided to give my new Sigma 85 1.4 a try to see if it could keep up with the fast pace of basketball, women’s is a little shower so it was a good game to start with. Overall, it does perform pretty well, but I would not be using it in situations where I will need every shot. The AF is just not as fast as my 70-200. I shot the tip off, not really an interesting shot, but just an illustration of the CA on the bright whites of the USC Trojans jerseys.

Another remote view, the timing isn’t completely the same due to having only one shot on the remote as opposed to some bursts from my main camera.
