I'm not in disagreement with how you shoot or your advice :) .  That is why I asked how he shoots ;) . I shoot for Clubs , schools and a couple of pro- under 21's teams.  My brief is to try and...

A real bummer is that some times they do not even weigh the hand-carry but that doesn't mean they won't on the return flight or , if multiple airlines, the next one will :( My wife and I always...

Gary, I've read both of your posts on the subject.  What you have not said is what Sports and how you shoot them. Are you shooting for fun or profit?  Do you wait for a shot in a specific area or...

everything came together :) .  Not the close in detail but it is the image that counts. Thanks for posting All the best

Interesting response to a first time poster.   OP has been shooting for 10 years and wants to improve their Sports images.  They have indicated that they are not satisfied with the 28-300 sports...

Excellent Donald.  I have not looked at this forum for a LONG time.  So you are shooting the D4 :) .    Was just watching HK get thrashed by Japan in the Asian 5 Nations and was looking out for...

Teri, welcome to Dpr :) .   The 70-200vrI or II is a great Sports Lens( I have both).   The 80-200 2.8D is also a great lens for less than half of the 70-200vr but also lacking vr, if that is...

I have to be out by 0600 and by 0730 the light is to bright , flat and harsh :) .  By the time the Raptors hunt and fish in the mid-morning it is too hot!   Many thanks for the added iso info.  I...

Jim these are excellent and I appreciate these comments :) .  So you're staying at iso 800 and below?   I really like the idea of being able to crop more or shoot in the 1.3 crop for sports. I...

Barman is late opening Kas, Turkey.  EM5 9-18 (I think :) ) more of Turkey trip here, mixture of Nikon D700 and EM5 http://taja.smugmug.com/Travel/Turkey/28958290_hnT2Vx#!i=2462331283&k=wJ8LxrV

These are pretty impressive.  I shoot a lot of fast moving small birds and you have done a very good job on those last 3,  Good advert for your abilities and the D7100 AF :) . Many thanks for sharing.

If I were a better shooter, younger, made more money from my images and the family did not own, and shoot, 9 Nikon DSLRs with 30 or so lenses I might think about jumping ship.  I may or may not buy...

Sound simpler/quicker with Command Dial ;) . You posted a great shot of the Owl launching out of the dark BG on that other site ;) . Was this a one or two shot wonder or were you shooting a series?...

Steve, I apologize for being lazy and not digging for the info :) , but can you set up the camera for a quick change from full to 1.3 crop ala the D800?    I will be using the camera for soccer and...

Jim, many thanks for posting these very good shots. Good news on the AF and feel of the grip. It will be at least 3 weeks before I order one so you will have had more time with the camera. Heck,...

Ray, good to see you posting and many thanks for the image.  I'm very happy that you have one already and Jim will be getting his soon.  I look forward to shots and thoughts from both of you.They...

Dez, these are very good.  I can't wait to see you use the lens when you get some of your unusual festivals this spring and summer :) .I'm off to Istanbul in 10 days and this is the first lens I've...

Jim, when I saw this in the small size I thought you had done it in B&W and just kept the eye.  I really like the image.  That very slight touch of colour around the tail is great and I like the...

to me :) .  I am not worried about the fps since I am rarely shooting long bursts any more, even in sports, but I have a couple of spots that I can get a flurry of activity with birds grabbing...

and there is no wink at the end of your statement :) .   With the recent glitches on the new offerings I might wait but am very interested in your opinion when you start shooting.  Also, even...
