T O Shooter

Not in the same words, but I've been saying the same thing for awhile.  There's hardly any point to it.  Landscape especially and part of the reason I concentrated more on BIF. Acceptable ...

Good to see you drop in.  It's been awhile.

The D750 will not hold up AF wise if the AF is being pushed hard, particularly in low light. It's just not built into the body. It's a relatively cheap, consumer body, and you only get what you ...

I don't agree with D750 / D850 comparison. I had the D750 along with a D810 and a D4. I found on any particular day and depending on the subject, for things that move, it could be the D810 or D750 ...

It's a very good camera.  Just not my first choice for things that move.

For me shooting wildlife ( and BIF ) means AF, and the best AF comes from D4s, D5, D6.

First one shows f2.8, so there's that.

That's a stupid price. While my purchase of one was a unique situation to say the least, I bought mine (200 f2VRii) about 4 or 5 years ago for $3900 Canadian. Under 1/2 price. The unique part was ...

If you can get pass the awkwardness of the front heavy 200, it's probably a decent solution for an almost 300 2.8. Never thought about replacing my 300 2.8 VR with it when I had one (200 2.0 VRII), ...

There's just no good or right answer to this.  For reference, I have 70-200VRII, 200-400VRII, 200-500, 300 2.8VR, and a 500f4VR.  I sold a 200 2.8VRII that I could not find a proper use for. The ...

Very surprised the 50D isn't closer to the Milvus.

I have no idea the difference optical between a Nikkor and a Canon. I have the 200-400VRII and a Nikkor 300 2.8VR. Optically, I'd take the Nikkor 300 over the zoom.  But for me it would come down ...

On all of my long lens, 70-200VRII, 300 2.8 VR, 200-400VRII, 500 f4VR, 200-500, I use VR very selectively. If I am above 1/500 sec generally, 1/1000 sec always, I make certain VR is off. I prefer ...

Just because it's in the manual doesn't make it right.  I stand by what I said.  VR is at best a screwy solution, can cause more problems then it will solve, particularly causing less than sharp ...

I still haven't seen surfing shots from you from any other camera body that are as good as your ones with the D750. That includes those shot with D4s, D850, Z9 or anything else you shoot. And I am ...

I would not, and do  not, use VR on a tripod or over 1/500 sec. VR can create more problems then it can solve.  Many a somewhat blurry image can be attributed to VR in situations where there's no ...

Same here.

That's Nikon's cost cutting measure. Some fellows say the same about 3rd party grips.  Not sure if it was ever true, but it's not true today.  I only have one 3rd party battery, but I wouldn't ...

I have a D4s, so I have the Nikon charger and Nikon batteries for the grip.  I bought a Mcoplus grip off Ebay at around $120, so my total outlay.  Grip is excellent.  You can accomplish the same ...

There's really no way to give you any kind of decent reply without knowing the $$$ amount you're talking. BJ Photo in Waterloo has a 47000 shot one for $2250 but you have to pay the tax. There's a ...
