Thanks Yall !!!
I am a little bit excited ( well a lot a bit ) . I really wish i had better glass to shoot with , but i guess i need to crawl before i walk huh?

I am worried about that , i am soooo bad about blowing things out , but if i look at my histogram i think i can work it out ........

Congrats Drake
You should probably shoot at a fairly high ISO. You are way better off having some grain in your photos than motion blur...

Thanks Russt ...
We are going to shoot sunday , i was thinkin about renting a lens , i found a guy in memphis that has some that i can rent cheap ( 36 dollars for 3 days ) if thats what you call cheap . What do yall think ? is it worth it , or should i just use the 300 mm f4-5.6 that i have ( i think thats the lens i have , its too early
)
