muikabochi 208 Posted June 23, 2009 Author Share Posted June 23, 2009 This was with the 80-200 This was at 500 (handheld) Link to post Share on other sites
thursday 1 Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 that 500 is a smokin' shot. Look at the detail. Link to post Share on other sites
muikabochi 208 Posted June 23, 2009 Author Share Posted June 23, 2009 Yes I have been pleased with it though only took a few shots. Not been out in sunny weather yet or with the tripod - that one was taken hand-held. Link to post Share on other sites

muikabochi 208 Posted July 7, 2009 Author Share Posted July 7, 2009 Tried taking a photo of the moon last night. It was looking very bright with just a few clouds around it. All I can say is... er, need more practice! Link to post Share on other sites
stemik 14 Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 any advice is recommended. I have a Nikon D60 - it came with a 18-135 lens. I would like to take more close up shots of the kids racing. Can anyone help with what lens I should be looking at...(without breaking the bank) Link to post Share on other sites
RobBright 35 Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 I recommend the Nikon DX 55 - 200mm lens. I got that with my D60 when I bought it. Can get some good close up shots with it. Link to post Share on other sites
stemik 14 Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 just checked kakaku - its a very reasonable price. but the 70-200mm is a lot more expensive....can someone explain why? Link to post Share on other sites
muikabochi 208 Posted December 2, 2010 Author Share Posted December 2, 2010 What I want to know is, when are Nikon coming out with something to replace the D300? Link to post Share on other sites
muikabochi 208 Posted December 2, 2010 Author Share Posted December 2, 2010 Or something that I will want. Link to post Share on other sites
muikabochi 208 Posted December 2, 2010 Author Share Posted December 2, 2010 Then again maybe better they don't. I'll just start wanting. Link to post Share on other sites

stemik 14 Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 yes i think so is the zoom so much better? I know very little about cameras. Link to post Share on other sites
thursday 1 Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 unless you want to go full format down the line by buying a full format camera, you do not need the 70-200. That is a F2.8 lens with vibration reduction. It means you can shoot at fast shutter speeds in low light, and the VR will help you not blur even when hand held. It's more expensive than the DX equivalent because it is top of the range and has all the gizmos. Link to post Share on other sites
thursday 1 Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 for DX looks like you have this to choose from: Link to post Share on other sites
