Hello everyone.

I'm looking for some advice on taking single head shots and a large group photo of a football league.

These photos will be used for the program and could be used by the individual team members.

I have a Canon 20D and I planned on using my Canon 28-135 IS for the group pic and my 70-200 f/4 L for the head shots. I have a canon 430 EX flash and a sunpak 383 with a Hong Kong flash remote.

I'm looking for suggestions on set-up. I don't want to have shot come out blurry so I plan to shoot with with a tripod. Any sure-fire tips that will make this a success?

peace.

    hi Johno,

    I'm wondering if you might receive better feed back in the people section - those that do portraits...

    looks like you've got reasonable equipment/lenses; what specific advise are you looking for?
