d7000 part 2

some more from today. the coots sure have some ugly feet

 

more

 

and more

 

i'll ask, it's my job, somebody has to do it


did you see any old coots??

 

nah Gary. they usually don't ; show up until spring. I did however see a lot of young whipper snappers

 

I have to ask...how is the handling of the camera with the flying birds? Have you tried 3-D dynamic focusing yet?

 

I watched a Scott Kelby episode and he said he asked the guy from nikon that worked on the focusing system and the guy told him that 21 point dynamic area was the best for sports and ; action so that is what I started using on the d7000. the d90 only had 11 point and didn't work well. on the d7000 it worked very well for me and focused very fast even with the tamron 200-500. a big improvement over the d90 which would hunt all the time with that lens

 

That's what I found to be the best for action, too, Howie. ; I got a hockey game to photograph on Saturday and I'll be using the 21 points.

 

thanks Jeff. still lots to learn though. Scott make sure you post some and ty for all you info

 

a few more. I wish the bald eagles would come in closer then they have been

 

More amazing shots Howie! ; I believe I will put putting away cash for a while, I think I need a new camera body!

 

thanks John. I need to save up too for a better lens. I may have to give up food to get the lens I really want

 

Is food really necessary?

 

yes unfortunately ; ; ; ;
