    Congratulations Harold Davis
    The Conductor

    I need a suggestion on which way I should go here. I've had the Bigma for some time now and it's been my baby through the good times and the bad. Problem is, it doesnt do action shots very good at all and I've just about had enough!! Is there anything out there, lens wise, that will not break the bank. I'm thinking this is a stupid question and I know I've visited this before. Any help would be appreciated.

    On this one, the exposure was perfect, but I feel the details are greatly lacking and I dont think there's any PP that will bring what I am looking for. If I am wrong, please tell me. Only thing I did was a slight crop for compo, added 7 points of saturation and one round of sharpening. and straightened the horizon.

    Thanks for looking and I appreciate the help!!
