Nikon D800 in the wild - Tanzania

Richard,

Had the same "guy behind the viewfinder" used a D700, his shots would have been equally impressive, and I really doubt anybody would look at them and say "what a shame they were made with a D700".

This is where the skill of the photographer is at work, admittedly you need equipment capable of producing the results you want- but you probably haven't used your d700 to maximum performance yet- don't underestimate what the camera is capable of.

I hope my post has just saved you a few thousand dollars- maybe add to your lens collection instead?

Cheers to original poster, what a magnificent set of images.

Well done.
