HandBall!

Up untill about two weeks ago I like many had never herd of the sport handball however this past weekend has been a baptisim of fire into the sport with the oppertunity to shoot a couple of matches from the 4 nations event at Eis Sheffield Hit the link for more.

The venue EIS at sheffield is a stunning multi-sports facility that has the equipment and skills to support most sports the handball was to be situated in the basketball hall, having shot here earlier in the month I knew that the light was strong enough to support a fairly fast shutter, 1/640 f2.8 with 1600 iso this was just about fast enough for the basketball how ever handball is another ball game all together! I endded up having a working set up of 1/1000 f2.8 at 1600 iso (2/3s of a stop under) not ideal but still manageable with a little post work.
