Iowa Speedway Action Part 1

I've survived the first set of practices and exclusively shot with the Tokina 100-300. It is a bit of a challenge to get used to a new lens when it's of this size and shape. Small wideangles are much easier to get to grips with--especially when chasing vehicles going 180 MPH.

I'm shooting RAW+JPG (1024x768 1:8) and uploading the JPEGS to this blog without any further editing--these are straight out of the camera.

Some of the best shots are through the cutouts in the fence on the turns.

A little bit of experimentation with the zoom function of the lens.
