After finding the right setting, the one that would take the best pics, I took some, so here they are.

Nice moves if it is!
Cool pictures.......so your D50 came? Are those the orange hayes mags in the first one?
Really grainy. Lower ISO maybe?
Besides that, looks nice.

And the riders are really soft..:Jeenyus:. said:
More focusing practice is needed with perhaps a touch of panning for motion shots in low light. Add a touch of fill flash to taste.
well i like them but i dont know much about photography im always happy when someone actually gets off the bike to take one of me lol. nice shots though.
Yeah, some flash fill would have worked wonders, then you can shoot at lower ISO's. However I think the D50 shoots ISO 200 minimum anyway...which kind of sucks.
The shots look good though. Apart from being a tad soft (which is most likely the lens, not the camera) you did well.

Hm, EXIF information seems to have been lost.
Good composition. As others have said, a little soft (you don't have the rider in focus - they were either moving too fast or you had pre-focused on the wrong spot), and a little grainy but I wouldn't stress about that much - just the nature of high ISOs.
As I'm looking at it, I think you have the lip of the landing in good focus, and the rider hasn't gotten there yet, which is why it's a bit off. If you had it pre-focused, your AF might very well be fast enough to catch the rider in flight so you could give that a shot.
Glad to see your D50 came, though! Nice shots, keep shooting!

Not the lens, nor the camera, when parts of a photo are sharp and the subject is soft.Netguy said:
The brake would be an orange Hayes, came stock on that bike in 2002.
The pics might be a bit grainy becasue I cropped the original and resized them a bit, the original ones are not as grainy, I checked. I'm still getting used to focusing on the rider, mainly becasue everything happens so fast. I was focusing on the case-guard before the landing most of the time.
I too was wondering about the helmet. Anyway, another pic from today, also a bit soft, I think I used the wrong setting, too slow of a shutter and I must have slightly blurred everything a bit.

Wow a vast improvement. Keep shooting, and by the way i'm heading to Galby this next Sunday maybe, for a club ride that i'm not leading though.....
