Thanks. Glad you think so!
Very welcome! :3
Nope. I don't like the results that nose reduction software can give. I tend to find that the D90 copes ok up to ISO 2000 of the subject isn't too contrast-y. If you have something like a leopard with really high contrast areas then it struggles at 800.
I have this block over going above 640,i suppose my slower lens can make the loss of sharpness look worse...
The plan for next year is better glass,your 300 f4 looks like a good step..
Oh really? That's quite low for a D90. Is it an older version?
Yeah. The lens will accentuate anything wrong with the camera. Whenever I use my old 55-200 i'll rarely go above 800.
That 300 F4.0 is amazing. It's the best lens in it's class i've ever used. Yeah, it can hunt at times, and has no VR, but if you use anything above 1/500 and are prepared to grab the focus ring to stop the hunt then it's really fast all the time, and is stupidly sharp.
Its about 18 months old,but it was upgraded recently when it went back for an image board problem...i havent pushed it since it came back,so it may be worth a go..
My 70-300 is nice,but needs careful use,part of which is keeping the iso down to help get sharp images(bit of a focus nazi
Ignoring the price difference,i am looking at the 300 f4,or maybe the 70-200 2.8...come on lotto
Yeah. You'll notice a BIG difference if you jump up to a prime in terms of sharpness too
I was going for the 70-200 at one point. It's a stunning lens, but I prefer the extra reach, and the 300mm is sharper by definition. It's one of Nikons sharpest lenses, along with the 500mm F4, the 14-24 F2.8 and the 105mm macro.
