Every Nikon I've had has been this way - I never use them though.
I don't know who Mr Harvey is
My wife's bought me Silverstone F1 tickets for me and am going for the full three days in the hope to get some decent pics
Is everyone just old and fragile on this forum moaning about lens and body weights
before people get off the banter bus........ this is banter, i know most of you have had some ailment or operation that has rendered you in operable to carry anything above a 35mm lens.
I booked my 40th birthday present last night from the missus... Mr Harvey's workshop in April
I'd still take the D750 too
I've used a 70-200 on a cropped body at silverstone before.I'd still take the D750 too [emoji14]
D750 with 150-600mm and D500 with 70-200mm. I don't think the 70-200 will be long enough at Silverstone so was considering a 1.4TC, but then thought why not try a D500 and then it saves having to swap lenses
I struggle to pan at 1/50 at 600mm let alone 900m eq
What too heavy [emoji1]I struggle to pan at 1/50 at 600mm let alone 900m eq
I'm probably mistaken but I'm sure i set my D7200 to thirds in the menu options.only thing the lines are opened on the edges
Lol. I get you're carrying on with the joke but to give a serious answer yes and no. Obviously the longer the lens the more it accentuates 'camera shake' so at 600mm trying to pan steady with no vertical movement isn't easy. I dare say if you could get a 600mm that's only 800g it wold be easier, but still at 600mm slow shutter panning isn't easy regardless
Most likely
What about a monopod then ?Lol. I get you're carrying on with the joke but to give a serious answer yes and no. Obviously the longer the lens the more it accentuates 'camera shake' so at 600mm trying to pan steady with no vertical movement isn't easy. I dare say if you could get a 600mm that's only 800g it wold be easier, but still at 600mm slow shutter panning isn't easy regardless
Still not easy to keep it steady at 1/50.
Yeah, not all of us have superhuman powers and can pan at 1/8 you know
In my defence the Tamron isn't the best balanced lens when extended, and is heavy.Thank you both.
I've got both an Ex-Pro and one of the Duracell ones, and both have worked fine.
Another vote for ex-pro
I picked up some Nikon batteries from MPB a few years back. They are second hand but it looks like they have a few at only £19 each. It's another option that's worth considering.
And another.And another vote for Ex-Pro

My local coast line, enjoy the colours of the morning.
Thanks M [emoji106] was a bit nippy though and I'm in the south of France [emoji41]
Thanks gents, was with the Sigma 24-105.
Lovely image, Graham - you've got a dirty sensor/lens though...Heres one from February , edited in PS6 and LR

Haha, I used Adobe camera raw 1st, that allows me to make adjustments @ 16 bits before I transfer to PS, I used unsharp mask in PS then in LR I also made a little adjustment with the sharp finish slides. With the sliders in LR I play about lots, slide up and down before I make my final decision.Lovely image, Graham - you've got a dirty sensor/lens though...
What's the general consensus for sharpening? Sharpen in LR, or High-Pass filter in PS? I've been playing around with the high-pass method and it seems to give pretty decent results.
