My Wimbledon 2007 Experience

well along time ago i posted a thread for help on which camera to buy for taking to wimbledon for my tennis photos, you guys talked me into buying the canon 400d, along with the 70-200mm F4 IS, all i can say to you's that helped is thanks so much, i am more then happy with the results it produced, and have now got a new hobby "photography". thanks again for everything


So ive finally managed to edit the 300 to 400 photos i took at this years wimbledon, and i thought i would share them with you's, i went the first wednesday which was awesome no rain all day & i went the first saturday the worst day of the championship, it rained pretty much all day, and i only got to see 56 minutes of play the mauesmo match! Arghhhh, that was one long old day.

anyway here are a few

Re: My Wimbledon 2007 Experience

I can imagine shots like these would give you alot of confidence in the gear you bought and the money you shelled out on it.

Re: My Wimbledon 2007 Experience

Nice shots.

I can imagine it pays off to get to the tournament early on, before half the grass gets worn away!
