"Just out of curiosity, how do you usually set custom WB under such condition?"

 

Since I will be in several different arenas, it seems that every one has unique lighting. I set the WB every time that I enter a different arena.

Just got the D200 a few days ago, my first DSLR. I bought the Lens: 70-200 2.8 G VR to capture some sports.<div></div>

"Depends upon the lens per AF speed of the lens. Could you give us more info? "

 

Yes.. Shooting manual mode 1/500 f/3.5 Custom WB, with a Nikon 70-200 2.8G VR Lens.<div></div>

I have had mixed results during the few hockey games that I have taken.

Shooting a D200 but not sure what AF area mode to use. I have tried Dynamic-

area AF, Group area AF, and also Dynamic area AF with closes subject priority.

What would be the best setting for an indoor hockey game? Also should I be

using a "Focus Zone" selection or not? Thanks!<div></div>

Thank you all for your advice. I do own a AF-S 70-200 2.8 ED VR - WOW what a lens! I just wanted to know if the other would work until I can fill the gap with newer and faster and smaller lenses. TJ<div></div>

I think that I got it somewhat dialed in, except for the WB.

I am new to the D-SLR world. I just got a new D200 mainly because I thought the

older lenses that I had would work fully with the D200 body. I have Nikon

Nikkor AF 28-80 1:35-5.6D and a Quantaray Tech-10 NF AF 70-300 1:4-5.6D Macro

lens. My question is, Are these lenses fully compatible with the D200? Should I

set up different "shooting menus" for these lenses? They seem to work out ok

with the D200, but is there something that I need to adjust so they

work "better"? Thank you very much!

I am about to venture into taking pictures during indoor hockey games. I

recently purchased a used D200 body and a Nikon 70-200 f/2.8G AF-S VR lens. I

read about high ISO settings due to the speed of the game and low light

conditions. Generally speaking, what would be ideal settings for this

equipment? What ISO, meetering, settings would work best? Thanks! TJ

I am getting back into the photo hobby with a digital SLR. I have an older

N6006 that works great. Untill I get my newer D200 body is there a

compatibility issue with the newer Nikon 70-200mm f/2.8G ED-IF AF-S VR Zoom

lens working with the older N6006 body? The auto focus does not seem to work.

Thanks for your response.
