I would not recommend auto wb.</p> <p>As for the focal settings I would set it to auto focus and shoot with an iso of 400</p> <p>I would set your camera to allow you to set the shutter speed at around 125 and have the camera decide the aperature.  I would also recommend a flash, although any thing too far away isn't going to be affected, it will help as a fill light for those closer shots. Hope this helps.</p>MandaMandafemale31answer3.0Sat, 01 Aug 2009 04:27:03 GMThttp://yedda.com/questions/Sports_Photography_D300_5183182419578/set_white_balance_kelvins_custom_273683748510150?src=rss:qb:qbi
