@smithchild
need some advice.
I'm meant to be taking some photos of a group ride this evening.
I have the following equipment but very limited experience etc.
pentax ist DSLR
50mm 1.7 prime (manual focus)
28mm 2.0 prime (manual focus, but allows ttl metering)
Some kind of kit zoom lens which i've never really used (auto focus) which came with the camera.
I will be taking most shots at the top of hills where they're slowest to give myself a bit of a chance.
What would people recommend as far as set up etc goes? use the zoom as the autofocus will help? Tripod? use the built in flash (which i've never succesfully used previously so now i forget is even there)
any advice much appreciated.
