While mowing the lawn at church today I messed up some of my nice straight lines.
 This is the reason.   Will be fun to watch this.  |

I'm really liking this 300mm lens. I have to keep it around F8-10 to keep things sharp but it gets some great distance shots.

Almost all of the pics I've posted over the past 3 weeks came from that.  For the $400 I paid for mine (I missed the $300 refurbs) it is an outstanding lens. I can see why people pay up to the $600 price tag on em. When I get around to upgrading to a D7200, I am so keeping this lens.

I thought the purpose of Artillery was to kill large numbers of the enemy. Here is a picture of me trying to kill a platoon of NVA.
Artillery is not without its dangers though.

The extra 50% of reach from the conversion is really helpful for aerial shots, but is annoying that my minimum is 105mm. My next aquisition will be a wide angle prime lens. My kit lens sucks and I pretty much refuse to use it now lol. |

My kit lens sucks and I pretty much refuse to use it now lol. I got a screaming deal on a D5300 a few months ago and love it. (sold my D5100 with 18-55 and 55-200 for $550 and picked up the D5300 w/ 18-55 for $575) It is a huge step up from the D5100 and 5000 cameras. The 7200 is pretty much the same camera minus GPS, but is weather sealed and has a built in focus motor. The motor is the big one for me since AF-S lenses are spendy. Can run pretty much any Nikon AF or AF-S lens on the 7200. I still rock my 18-55 a lot of the time. You can get a 35mm or 50mm prime for under $200 on Amazon. I'd go with the 50mm 1.8f AF-S G though. Weathersealed and designed to work on full frame sensors without cropping, but works with crop sensors just fine. I paid ~$175 for mine and love it. The 35mm is just a basic AF-S kit lens as far as I can tell. Other than the 1.8f it doesn't do anything different from the kit lens. |

That is the one I have. 58mm filter threads btw. I'd grab a UV filter to work as a sacrificial just in case. You can nab a refurb from Nikon with free shipping for $170 right now. http://www.nikonusa.com/en/Nikon-Products/Product/Refurbished-Camera-Lenses/AF-S-NIKKOR-50mm-f%252F1.8G-Refurbished.html |

No I was just commenting on the Artillery video posted by MAJClem. Those are fairly new pictures though. Only 47 years old. |

If it's bolt on, it's not as bad. Press in and you're going to have a bad day! Maybe not today......but someday soon. |
