Partial eclips from Last week.

You want to see something really scary? These aren't Halloween costumes. Fort Bragg MP's practice donning protective gear Oct. 30 as they prepare to deploy to Africa in support of Operation United Assistance.

Your staff received some very nice camera gear. How are you and they liking the D810 so far?

Yes they did. I hope they appreciate the step up from D300's to full frame D810's

To soon to tell how they will work out. I have had a personally owned D800 since they came out. Incredible colors and tone. Even more impressive files sizes If you are moving into 36MP RAW full frame from crop frame 10-15MP then go ahead and buy a USB3 card reader and a computer that can move that kind of data around. The 5 fps is kind of slow for sports, you have to get your timing right.

Oh and I have a file on my desktop named "anyone can take good photos with a pro camera" that contains crap. The latest works are taken with the D810 and a $2000 Nikon lens. With $5000.00 in his hands the guy turned in four portraits taken at four feet outside in good light. And there is not a thing in focus in the photos. Nothing. I would have to look at the settings in the exif data at the office, but I remember wondering how anybody could come up with that combination of shutter speed, f stop, and ISO.

Check back in a few months and we will see how it is going.
