Forgot about that one. Nice lens, just not full frame. But that would do the trick for sure.Quote:

Picture in previous post was of Joey from the 8th floor of hotel . he was about a mile away. this is the blownup version. Attachment 20032
Nikon 70-300 is a better lens than the 18-300 and will auto focus faster and sharper
Very nice. I may have to take you up on this. Have camera, will travel?Quote:

and then to totally jump whiteworks' train... ME TOO, lol. ... and i'm unemployed with clear calendar, HA!
It's official we bought our first fancy camera lets hope we can learn how to use it. http://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/09/29/gu3evu5y.jpg
New to me lens 100-300 off Craigslist http://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/09/30/2ydagedy.jpg
Let's hope you don't try the "I wonder if it floats" experiment again.. Lol. Poor phone. Looks like a nice camera. I'm clueless when it comes to cameras.Quote:

Thats a great camera and you can create amazing images with it. I shot this pic yesterday on an older version of your camera.
That's funny, I told Wendi that off the site,, both Canon and Nikon are in a continuous competition, and as you say, when you get more critical with your photos, better lenses make the difference.Quote:
