Sweet photos SiriS! Here are a couple from my 5800 XpressMusic:
I'm definitely taking my digital camera with to tomorrow night's match between Italy and Paraguay!

Opening weekend - 2010 World Cup
Some photos from the press pro's... http://www.boston.com/bigpicture/2010/06/opening_weekend_-_2010_world_c.html
Love this one (looks like they being herded like sheep)
WARNING: There are a lot, and they are quite big, just a heads up for capped users on a slow line with no patience

Italy vs Paraguay:
It was FREEZING last night! Fortunately I was sitting high up and stayed out of the rain. Another rad evening in Cape Town.

Anyone get of the players?
One of those action shots is quite a bit harder than I thought without a dSLR
EDIT : Zoom length is actually alright, but when zoomed out fully it gets dark ... and to prevent blurring and 'freeze' action, I set a higher shutter speed which gets it even darker. If I incease ISO to compensate, it gets very grainy on my lil sensor.
Interested in what a entry to mid SLR looks like

I'm not sure if im allowed to upload these photos but if I'm breaking any laws I'll remove it.
I was sitting in the 29th row from the pitch behind the goals and I think this guy was midway between the half way line and goal posts.
ISO 800, f7.1, 1/400th @270mm
ISO 800, f7.1, 1/500th @ 300mm

First picture was 1/400th and the second was 1/500th. Using a Canon 400D with 70-300mm IS USM lens. I'm going again on Friday and got a Canon 100-400mm L lens to test out

You're going to be wanting to get a new body soon, me thinks.

A new body because of the dust pumping into it from the 100-400mm?
I am planning on getting a new body near the end of the year. I'm really wanting the 7D so I have to find a way to "drop" the camera and claim
No, it's just the natural progression when you start playing with nicer glass.

I have realized that. I would like something with a higher frame rate and autofocus that will focus on the subject even tho you've recomposed. I was taking a few pictures next to another guy with a 50D and it sucked to have a slow frame rate compared to him.
