Will meet my grandchildren, for the first time (they, two boys, were born in May), so not just wildlife! But Kaeng Krachan National Park is on the menu, of course!

To me, who got my first zoom in '68 (used — truly crap!), I have moved away from zooms as time goes by, but the two AF-Ps I have (18-55 DX VR and the 70-300 DX VR), are surprisingly good. Soon off ...

Awesome shots, Ricardo!

I use my Sigma equivalents (100-400 C and 150-600 S) with my sturdy monopod, works great for me!

Larry, That is exactly the reason why I walked home with a Sigma 150-600 S, instead of the planned 200-500. The former is water-resistant, the latter isn't, the focusing speed is awesome with the ...

Three great shots, Richardo, but was the Komodo shot in the wild?! Then you were pretty close!

I'd take that 16-80, and the fastest of the other lenses, for night/evening use! It really depends on what you're interested in, life on the beach needs long zooms, while inside temples wides are ...

A good rule, unless it's an old day!

I bought my Sigma 150-600 S before getting any DX body, and it sure works great with my N1 cameras, used it mostly with the V2 (not functional with the J5, sadly). But of course, it works even ...

Do own the AF-S 70-200/4.0G VR, a lens that works very well with the FT-1! Not used it for sports, mostly use mine for birds. Not much need for tracking focus with a butterfly sitting on a plant is ...

The speed in acquiring focus varies a lot between lens to lens, when you shoot with the FT1. My two AF-P lenses are damned fast, the AF-S 85/3.5 VR need very high contrast to work well, and so on. ...

Same here this morning, in Gothenburg, Sweden!

A month, or two! Retiring, so no fixed schedule!

Thousands of cars in my little city are electric, or hybrid, while my own is just environmentally friendly (small engine, that stops at traffic lights as by magic), made by Toyota. Bought before ...

That is exactly what Canon did, ages ago! After a lot of noise, it was totally accepted.

That is very true unless it is used as a taxi! Many probably charge their batteries quite rarely, say once a week, should be good for at least twenty years, if you are conservative in your driving, ...

I seem to recall that all present rechargeable batteries can be recharged about a thousand times, and then things go downhill. No matter if they are SLAs, NiCads, NIMHs, or something else. Volvo ...

Well, I am used to using only the center point for focusing, never use face priority, so for me that's perfect, and if I need more functions I use my FX and DX cameras, as when doing BIF. I began ...

Everyone here, you mean?! If we look around us (outside, in the real world), FF mirrorless cameras are very rare, about as rare as Nikon 1 cameras. Not everyone is interested in cameras, to begin ...

Lovely shots, Jim!
