  1. Hi Steve, thank you on the complimenta and also for your extra added technique with the camera settings. I really appreciate you coming by very much. I will for sure jot all these informative responses in my books. I'm going to try to add the same photo above, to below that I added contrast too, not sure why I couldnt post it before. Have a wonderful life Steve. Take care<div>00RXCo-89817584.jpg.1b58b5dc73ebfa487abf7a62336762bd.jpg</div>
  2. Hi Dan and Steve.....Well I want to thank you both for your help and I thought I would add a photo I took last night. I cropped it because I had a tendency to not be close enough to these youngens with my lens but live and learn. I also sharpened it some. My settings were 1600 ISO, f2.8, 1/320 shutter. I also did a custom white balance inside the rink. I'm able to take the photos without glass in front so that is a big plus as you both know I'm sure. Last night was just a practice for me and the team so it was great to be able to see what I can do before the real game next time. It is exciting and fun to take photos of these little hockey players. I thank you both again for your help, very informative information for sure. May you both find peace at your doorstep everyday. Take care<div>00RWzF-89697584.jpg.f5bd87af31b2adfc9d9ab97cd522e660.jpg</div>
  3. Hello, I have been asked by a friend to take pictures of her sons hockey team while playing hockey (mites) inside.

    My equiptment I will use is a Canon 40D and 70-200 f/2.8L IS USM. I would like to know what settings I should use?

    Thank you. Have a great day.

  4. Hello Jim, I have not purchased my macro yet do too $$$ but still plan on purchasing one in the future. I will however look at Keh and see what they have, it sounds like a great site. I appreciate you informing me of more info for this lens. Thank you so much Jim. Have a great day.
  5. Hello, well I'm not totally savey to this but I'll add my thoughts. If you can still view the pictures on your camera then try downloading Picasa.com on your computer and that software just might be able to open the files off your card. If that does not work it is out of my hands. I hope you get this resolved. Take care
  6. Hello Leif and Alan....you also have been very helpful in making my decision on the lenses, and I do so appreciate your time and comments. The reading here has been very interesting and a good learning. Thank you for helping me through this process and peace to you and yours.
  7. Thank you all so very much for commenting on my question. So far I am leaning towards the 100mm f/2.8 but still need some time to re-read all of your suggestions. It's great to have everyone's views to go over and learn about these lenses. Also If I choose the above that I mentioned and then down the road want to purchase another I have the information here to go back over. Thank you again for enlightening me. Have a great day
  8. Hello to each of you and a huge THANK YOU for all of your very informative comments. I will go back again and re-read everyone of your answers again tomorrow morning when my brain is fresh ;O) and think seriously about which macro to purchase. This is one of the many reasons that I have become a member on PN. Every lens that I have purchased I am so pleased with and it is because of wonderful Photographers suggestions like you here on PN. I could not have done it without any of you. Thank you again for all your help and may you find kindness at your doorstep every day. Take care
