Day of the Dead commemoration in Mesilla, NM

Shot at maximum 600mm equivalent focal length. These dancers were moving very quickly and unpredictably and, as fast as the FZ150 is, it was difficult to capture well focused images.
There were several failures for each successful shot. While possible to get some good photos with the FZ150, for this type of photography my Canon 7D is clearly superior.
The 7D + 70-200 lens also produces sharper images with, as expected, less noise and more subject isolation. But still the FZ150 can produce quite good images under these challenging circumstances.

Panasonic LUMIX DMC-FZ150
1/400s f/5.2 at 108.0mm iso160 full exif
