I shot most of my team during the provincials, and I have to say, kendoka can be rather hard to nail.

The dark blue uniforms tend to lose their details if you shoot too dark... and the pictures will always be dark if you want more than a bluish blur on your wall.

I have a Nikon D70, mid range in terms of price/preformance. I would suggest getting a hotseat flash and crank it up to max, just make sure you're using the manual shutterspeed and aperture.

To avoid lateral motion, try to catch the kendoka while one is facing away, and one is facing toward you. Action shots are great, but ultimately, I think clarity is more important, so take some shots while they are still, and some shots while they are moving.

Also, aim for the men. You will need the texture and contrast in order to get a target lock.
