Fun with Nikon Images

Re: Fun with D800 Photos

Shelby, those shots will have a lot of wedding photographers drooling into the guests' salmon appetisers.. great stuff indeed!

Gary, I hope you've got a good copy of the 24-120. it is such a useful lens. You really must do the AF fine tune thing though: it is astonishingly easy and not only does it do what is says on the tin but it lets you place the DOF where you want it. My 70-200 in a studio at F8 was carrying all its DOF in front of the POF and I managed to adjust it so exactly that now, focus on the eye means the tips of nose and ears are in focus. Really useful.

LR4 is so good at what it does. Just download a trial and play. The shadows slider alone is worth the cost of entry with a D800. It is very intuitive yo use but if you want to throw some time at it, the Lula video series will leave you a total expert and with very nice results.

Re: Fun with D800 Photos

This is for a friend of ours for a commercial portrait that she needs for her website so pretty corporate looking. But just wanted to show you the 200mm F2 lens at F7.1 and the fall off. Its heavily airbrushed as that is what she wanted. I'm still working it too. LOL

Way behind here. I'll try to catch up.

Daves: Looks the the 85/1.4 deals well with the strong backlight.
Frankie: Some terrific sports shots. Love the action in that Rugby on the beach shot in particular.
Mikael: Great work, as always. I especially like the selective color rose, and the rocks at the shore is terrific, and I think it compares very well to Dan's MF shot.
Joe: Stunning images, as always. I love that shot of the river "Along Hwy 38".
Uwe: Very kewl detail shots of those old planes. Almost looks like selective color (although I know it's not.) Interesting.
Rayyan: Love the shots from Turkey, especially the Bosporus shot. The combination of warm and cool light is nice.
Gary: The shots from Thailand just are very kewl. Amazing color too. And that tree looks like "popcorn popping".
Bob: Some seriously departure from your usual. Very nice shots, and a very intriguing place.
Steve: Amen, bro. Awesome images too.
Gary: Nice to see you got the D800e. Nice images too. Looking forward to more examples.
BSEH: Sorry your wait for the D800 has been so long. Very nice work with the D7000, however. Great color; the skin tones are spot on.
Jorgen: Nice catch! Orange three is a decisive moment shot. Great color too.
John: Nice shot of the torch on the train. I'm looking forward to those Olymipics!

Hope I haven't missed anyone. Great work all.

LOL nothing a little white brush won't fix.

Re: Fun with D800 Photos

First day out with my D800E and I couldn't be happier! :thumbs:
All of these were shot with the 105/2.8G Micro-Nikkor. All hand held shots, most at f5.6 and ISO 200.

I don't know if you agree but the detail in these images just look like medium format to me.

Re: Fun with D800 Photos

Thanks Shelby. Fantastic shots!
I guess nobody here use only C1? For posting, LR4 is also better I guess? Have to learn it some day, although I dropped it because I didn't think it was so intuitive as C1, and was too impatience to invest the demanded time. Thanks for advice on LR Tim. Lula is better than Luminous Landscape, in learning LR? And posting from C1 gives me problems. The pictures don’t shine.

Very cool, Frankie. I like the look.

Re: Fun with D800 Photos

I'd like to add an image taken with my new D800 and the 70-300 lens. Tell me what you think. Thank you.

D800E with Zeiss Makro Planar 100mm @ F2.8 ISO 200 handheld 1/800th. This lens is a peach to focus manually, which is a good job!

Re: Fun with D800 Photos

Tim and DougMac.. nice work!

A little long exposure fun... "Snake Eyes"

Cheers!

Frankie, very nice subject and fish-eye fits.

Re: Fun with D800 Photos

Exquisite dof (and colours) on your flower, Tim!
I'm beginning wondering, going for acceptable dof, would mean f.11, and some pictures from that aperture could be interesting, just to get an impression on how unacceptable diffraction would be on different lenses.
