My D800 has arrived!!

Posted on March 22, 2012 by Ross

The D800 has just arrived (via Conns Cameras).

Click here for my first (unprocessed) straight from the camera JPEG!

Here’s a shot of a heron in the local park link

And of a few daffodils in the same park

Better shots will be uploaded when I get out and about… Leave a comment if you want me to upload the NEFs.

    Thanks for the comment, I did some post processing and the image just took on a life of its own. I’ll stick up a few more shortly…
    Wish we had a bit of snow over here… It would beat the cold, wet & miserable weather we always get! 😉

      Hi,
      Anything I’ve been shooting has been either a 50mm f1.4D or the 28-300mm. I’ve noticed a few focus issues with both lenses (the autofocus on some DX lenses I’ve tried has been bang on so I’m doubting a backfocus issue).
      Also to answer your other question, I shoot handheld all the time. It will lead to a lot of shots that need to be deleted due to blur but it’s way more flexible.

      Thanks for your comment,
      Ross
