Rochdale Town v Holker Old Boys

North West Counties League and first game of the year. It was also the first attempt with my new lens - a Sigma 70-200 f 2.8. I thought I'd also really push the ISO since the D7000 is supposed to be really good in this kind of situation. Have to say I'm really pleased. The floodlights at this level are somewhat challenging, giving large dark areas across a pitch, but the camera and lens functioned better than I could possibly imagine. I was able to hanhold at 1/250 with a constant 2.8 which has resulted in many more shots than I can usually manage from a late match.
