Tell me please- has anyone managed a decent picture of the Yeti (Not his shadow) with available light? I have tried all kinds of ways and about given up getting useless blurrs unless maybe someone dies and leaves me their D3. Not that I mind riding EE over and over trying mind you. Here is the best I have managed with no flash Here are a few I took while cheating and using the flash.
Jeff, is the EXIF correct about the D80? I would try D300, Hi 1.0, manual focus and prefocus? Then spray and pray?
Not bad - I haven't been to the Florida park since they added this ride :'( I don't think our vacation time - family committments will allow us to make it to either park this year. However, joy of joys - we are planning to head to the Florida parks in April or May 2009 and California in June 2009! 8)
True- this was with my D80- now camera of the lovely Mrs. Gdad Maybe the D300 will do better next time.
6400 with Noise Ninja or a decent noise reducer shouldn't be that bad. Most of my SE Reloaded was 6400 from the Edsel - bigger pixels granted but an older generation NR. The 40D inherited some of that technology. Granted I haven't taken mine out for too big of a swing yet....
