Hi all
my school is sending me for a in-house dance concert this fri evening to cover the event and i'm wondering if the later micro nikkor 105mm f2.8 vr can be used to take such fast paced action shots?
the stage would be quite dimly lit (no flash allowed) and i'll most probably be sitting at the front rows. i had tried a 85mm f1.4 before and the reach is a tad too short, thus the decision to switch to the 105mm (my friend would be using the 85mm).
I'll most prob be using a D300s with max iso of 1600. guess i will be needing a min speed of 1/250s
(previous shoot with the 85mm achieved 1/180s at f2, iso 1100)
How will the 105mm fare in terms or AF speed/accuracy and max aperture? Or is it better to use my 50mm f1.8?
thanks in advance
