Last night, a few Macworld staffers took in the Giants-Blue Jays game at AT&T Park. Our seats were well out in left field, so the picture taking wasn't the greatest. However, the 300mm zoom did a decent job of bringing the action a bit closer, as you can see in this brief album.
The Giants won 3-2, with all scoring completed by the end of the 3rd inning--late arrivals to the ball park missed most of the excitement (though there was one spectacular home-run-preventing catch later on).
What lens is this?
Are these the full frame, or did you crop the images?
These were taken with the Nikkor 70/300mm zoom, usually fully zoomed in. The images aren't cropped or even edited, other than I scaled them down to a max of 640 pixels wide. But I haven't gone in yet to work on color, etc. And yea, most of them are amazingly boring :). We were way out in left field, literally, so not a lot of good views of the action.
-rob.
Given the distance, the pics look great. I'll have to look into this lens.
