I keep getting prospective D800 buyers contacting me on flickr asking 'do I really need to use a tripod with this camera?', 'I hear you can't use it handheld?'....

I just want to get the facts right for anyone looking to buy a D800. It is complete nonsense.

Unread. It's always good to generalize and to try to debunk something with an equally absurd global conclusion.

You have proven nothing, one way or another. Because there is nothing to prove. Handheld or tripod depends upon exactly 46 different factors. You can figure them out yourself as they are very obvious.

I use tripod for what I do. Can I say that this is the only way to do it? Of course not.

Thanks so much for telling us the true facts and solving this nightmarish situation.

My pleasure
