uwate said:nice photos, great job on getting both players in that third shot so in focus. Joey looks very determined to beat Defjam.
Rick S. said:At the Derby I was showing Joey a print I did of Nick V. It was RAZOR sharp. He said "you took this with that?" pointing to my camera. (Nikon D70s) With a look of disbelief....
Here's the proof... The first shot is pretty darn sharp.
I have since upgraded cameras, jumping up to the D300.
Thanks for the compliment!

Newton said:The D300 is such a good camera. You could shoot with pretty high ISO without getting a wast amount of noise, which again gives you a big benefit for shutter speeds. I have a 70-200mm f/2.8 which I use for these types of shots.
May I ask which lens you use?

Rick S. said:It's an illusion created by the zoom lens. Actually there was probably 5-6 ft between them. Maybe more.....

Rick S. said:I was using my 80-200 at the time. I love this lens!! I'd probably like the the 70-200 more though!! That will be my next upgrade, I think......
My lens collection so far...
50 mm 1.4 Nikon
55 mm 2.8 Micro Nikon
18-70 mm 3.5 Nikon
80-200 2.8 Nikon
1.4 Kenko Pro Tele Conv
The D300 is vastly superior in all respects. It will focus faster, in lower light, WITH less noise. It's a matter of getting it dialed in right now. There are SO many settings to choose from. The manual is 419 pages, and it BRIEFLY goes over things.

Do you have a foto web page by the way?
