Hi, Try to google shots of the locations you are going to visit. Look at what kind of camera + lens people used. For me the "ideal travel camera" is a very individual choice and a combination of...

You have caught an amazing situation - what a lovely shot! Personally I would crop quite close, but of course that is a matter of taste: the top of the hair and the upper half of left arm of the...

Amazing shots. thank you for sharing - I read your post about your lightning set up -thank you!

Beatiful and very natural pictures! However I think it is a pity to combine #1 & #2. They are each great and to me it is distracting to melt them together. It could be a series of: #3 (engrossed in...

Hi, Brave you are! If I was the beautiful model I would kick you for publishing my chest like that - the dress looks crumpled and "empty" where it should have been full. How to avoid this? I would...

Hi, Sorry to interfere, but I understand Priscilla: If you have a series of photograhps that you have obviuosly thought a gret deal about and planned the poses for, then you are so advanced that it...

Please take this as constructive criticism - and it does not imply that I am able to avoid same pitfalls :-) 1.st: Beautiful expression. Too much distracting blurred foreground. I wpould crop to...

Beautiful! But I struggle myself to avoid this "issue": Lines in the background going "through" the head of the subject. If there are numerous lines it is a non-issue, but with 1 line my opinion is...

Hi, I exchanged my Nikon 105MM F2.8 VR for the 70-200mm F4 because 1) well the zoom is much more expensive but also much more widely useful than the 105mm: Works excellent for birds and landscapes,...

100% crop of "standard fly" with 70-200mm F4 + TC1,7E II

Amazing pictures - I have never seen an owl like that. I looked at the tree frog and noticed you used F13 and the area in focus is more in front of the eyes than behind the eyes and the rest of the...

Agreed - it definitely made a difference to adjust focus on my 70-200mm F4 & with the extender x1,7. Using 340 mm on birds at 4 metres at effective F8 gives a very narrow focus depth, so it becomes...

Let us someday compare the Sigma (810g autofocus but no stabilization) on any APS-C versus the Zeiss 35mm F2.0 (530g pure brass & glass - no autofocus or stabilization) on the Nikon D800. With...

The Fuji lineup looks wonderful but a tad expensive.
Maybe it could be compared to the Nikon 70-200mm F4 ?
On the D600 the combo is 1606 grams ~3,5 pounds vs. the 2 pound Fuji-combo.
Maybe somebody...

Hi, this looks like an ok combination considering the tiny weight added by the TC to the D800 + zoom. I have trouble with the VR sometimes shutting off. The TC is a second hand unit. What do you...

Hi, I have the D800 with the Nikon 70-200mm F4 + nikon TC1,7x. What works? Everything: VR, autofocus, manual focus is still easy with the viewfinder magnifier in place and the eyecup (must-have...
