Practice Pics

[Mr. T!]

Here are some pics from team Armageddon's most recent practice, Sunday, April 13.

I am the one in the white tee shirt that/Dye Jersey.
If any of you AO'ers are coming to or playing in any of the MSTS tournies in colorado, we will prolly be there, so stop by and say hello.

[Mr. T!]

I would say you guys look pretty good, but I would most likely be flamed for assuming somebody could be good because they have expensive gear :rolleyes:

[EsPo]

yeah.. you probably have more into your gear than i do into my gun :rolleyes:

Here is a gallery link to some pics from our practice this spring at a local field.

We usually don't get pics but had a photographer on hand.

I'm out in california at school right now but ill be home in colorado all summer, im gonna try to find a team to play with for the msts. where do you guys practice?

[paintbolla]

they practice up at PBA in Albuquerque, New Mexico and yes that's in the US...

i'm sure the team would be more then willing to meet up with you jwren. they were complaining of finding a ten man team to practice with.

all pics were shot with a Nikon D100. they only look like crap because of the internet.

[Jason Stearns]

I`m with mind on this one, I`m a middy, but if my fronts are worried about wht to shoot at, they will never make it to the 50 off the break.

That is true. If you want to make it to the fitty you just better haul major a$$.

Kind of hard to run with your gun up, when you need to stay ducked down, so the back men dont hit you.

Well it is not a bad idea if you are a back player.:D

In the MSTS we play rookie, being our first out of state tourney (well, world cup doesn't really count).

When I got a long run I usually hold the gun by the back of it where a snatch grip would be if they made them for the EMag.


Hey Ben who is that in the first pic, all the way to the left? The guy with the the black cocker. On another note, there would've been acouple pics of me owning Mr.T's lame arse, but I had to take care of a sick wife.:(



Always remember kids when drinking all night don't finish it off with 7 shots in an about hour.

if you guys have ever seen the raw pics from a Nikon D100 you would know that these pics aren't up to par, the D100 is a professional level digital SLR camera (6.1 megapixles:D) and if i'm mistaken about the pro-level, i appologize, but it's damn close to pro-level. it's amazing what they can do with a good lens on there. my local newspaper has 1 for the work they do, and i shadowed the guy for an afternoon and he let me use it :). they're wonderful cameras...but enough about that, the pics still look great though

[mykroft]

D100's pro-am level. It's got a sensor that's last-generation pro level, on an amateur body (It's a F80/N80 body, Af and Meter).

Nikon's not making a true pro digicam at the moment, the only true pro SLR Digicam is the Canon 1Ds. The Kodak DCS-14n is nice (best sensor on the market), but shares the basic F80 body with the D100 and Fuji S2.

Nikon's pro bodies are the F100 and F5. The metering and AF units are out of this world compared to the F80(Which is darned spiffy nonetheless).

Caveat: I shoot a F65 and a FA myself(Photography comes after paintball in the spending heirarchy).

[TheJester]

well thank you for clearing that up mykroft

[cris8762]

gotta love the doo rag/headband combo!

nice pics guys, how'd u guys do at the cup?

do you have a portfolio to share? i just started shooting with my d100 and i was really disappointed in with how these pics turned out. could really use some inspiration.

what kind of tele do you shoot with? also, do you ever fanagle with the iso. i was told to leave it on auto but my photos still come out blurry. thanks in advance.


cris8762- they played well but didn't perform as they expected... i'm not on the team so i hope i summed it up fairly.

I sure do wish I could have got a shot at one of "So Dmn Insane's" great statues and pics of himself.
