Sirena Williams graciously allowed me to get a close up of her today. Wasn't able to choose the lens had the 70-200mm lens on the Nikon 810; just had to go with it

Here is one more of Sirena smiling. I'm hoping to have her autograph several of my shots in order to auction them for a local charity. Her press person indicated that she would be willing to do this when she returns from the Austrailan Open.Stanley, no apologies re the lens are necessary. The best lens and camera are the ones you have handy. If all you had were the 810 and 70-200/2.8, that was the best kit for the job.
Years ago, when my sister graduated from law school, the keynote speaker (an appeals court judge from one of the federal districts in NY) gave the parents a word of advice, which was to "always bring a polaroid camera" to supplement the fancy camera that they usually bring. He told the parents that too many times the parents missed the shots because they were too excited and forgot to remove the lens cap.
Very nice and a great opportunity. Just FYI, she spells her name "Serena".Here is one more of Sirena smiling.

For some reason the colors don't translate well in this jpg
Funny that you mention CCD, John. The D700 actually has a CMOS sensor, but I agree that the "look" is very close to that of CCD sensors (as opposed to the D300, at least in my view). I've even been thinking about buying a D80 or D200 because I miss the CCD look for some of my work. Those cameras are dirt cheap nowadays, and I even have a vertical grip for the D80, after I literally loved the one I had to pieces.Jorgen, I agree. I really have an affinity for my D700 images. Not to start another one of "those" wars, but do you think it might be due to the CCD sensor?
So here's one from this morning. D810, 70-200 f4 @f11.
