    Tell Nikon what you want

    Some say it is noticeable and some say it is not...and as you say for web and A4-sized prints maybe it is not so important, but I would´t buy a lens for only that use, often I like to go up to A3 and sometimes A2. I think image vice there are small to very small change in quality, but it...

    Tell Nikon what you want

    Yes, you get a 420/5.6 lens, but with the 1.4x TC AF-speed will decrese and you will get a slight loss in sharpness. Not much but there is a small difference, specially with the speed. And don´t forget that such a lens are probably weather-proofed and with a TC that is not possible. // Daniel

    Best tripod, head for Nikon 600mm f/4

    I have used the 600/4 VR with the full Wimberley (WH-200) and the Gitzo 3530LSV (now 3531) since december last year and are very satisfied with that combo. With the exchange foot from Wimberley it performs outstandingly easy on the tripod. I wouldn´t go for anything else with that lens of yours...

    Tell Nikon what you want

    1. AF-S VR 400/5.6 (a great compliment for the big gun when doing birds in flight) 2. Higher frame rate than 8 FPS on a prosumer-body (at least 10 FPS) 3. Better noise performence on DX-format at high ISO (matching my D700) // Daniel

    Where to go in Europe in early October?

    Why not Falsterbo, Sweden? Lots and lots and lots of migrating passerines and birds of prey. Quite easy to reach from Copenhagen Airport (Kastrup) with car (about an hour). // Daniel

    500/4 is the VR worth it?

    The VR does it for me! Don´t really have any experiance with the non-VR lenses (that I have heard are very well built and sharp as...) but have also in mind that the newer supertele VR-lenses all have Nano-coating. // Daniel

    Really like the plumage of the subadult gannets. Well captured with a very nice pose and depth of field. // Daniel
