K-x and DA 55-300

We had a chance Saturday to see one of our grand kids, Yuta, play in a Pony League baseball game in Irvine, CA. Yuta's a very determined and natural athlete, and he played pitcher, first base and center field.

I brought the K-x and DA 55-300 f/4-5.8 ED lens to capture a few memories of the game. All photos shot in RAW at ISO 400. Quite a few of the action shots of Yuta have been cropped to isolate the action. Click on any thumbnail to see a larger file.

These photos should help some potential Kx owners not shy away from it and a "slower" telezoom from shooting sports. So that's how Canon shooters dress? :)

Hi Ned, can you post more information about photos? AF-C, for example? continuous drive? I'm used shooting my children, with my K10D+50-200, while playing rugby matches but I never had so beautiful pictures...

Ned, I can really see a difference in your grand children this year compared to previous years. Don't they grow super fast!

Nice shots, Ned! I just bought the DA 55-300mm for a photo shoot at a President Obama speech in Portland a couple of weeks ago--it really helped me out! It's a great lens! Cindy

And at the 55mm end, it works great as a portrait lens with a nice bokeh too.
