This is the final day of MPOC 4th Leg tournament. The event held at Padang Merbok, KL.

My mission is to captured paintball with Olympus Pen E-PL1 + Oly 40-150mm F4-5.6 ED lens. A combination that mostly argued as slow. So I take the challenge to shoot probably the fastest team sport on earth.

Definitely can’t match DSLR speed and with horrific Supair Arena’s (first ever used in Malaysia or maybe Asia!) net and bunker border (I can’t lean to the net as close as I want)… I believe I got a decent images. I bet I would got better pics if I shoot from within the arena.

Its more than a year since I last shot paintball. To kick start it back I shot The Biggest 7 Man Paintball Tournament in Malaysia (Malaysia Book of Records), “AmBank Paintball Challenge 2009″. How I missed shooting Paintball… hope can do it again at this coming 5 Man Paintball World Cup Asia in late November.

All images captured with D90 attached with Nikkor 70-300mm VR… the lens is damn! sharp… it’s so sharp… it cuts!
