I'm trying to guess where the ball must be. The ump's body language says it's probably not in the catcher's mitt. So it must be just out of the frame on the right side or in the sky. At any rate, the XE-1 seems to be a good choice. -----Original Message----- >From: Jim Nichols <jhnichols at lighttube.net> >Sent: Apr 8, 2016 11:51 AM >To: "LUG at Leica-Users.org" <lug at leica-users.org>, Olympus Camera >Discussion <olympus at thomasclausen.net> >Subject: [Leica] IMG: Same Lens, Different Camera > >Shooting young baseball players in action, through a chain link fence, >in the late afternoon shadows, is challenging.
