Steeple w/clock (love this camera/lens combo)

Jack'll do

I am really thrilled with my new D700 and 70-200 AFS f/2.8 G VR lens. This combo exhibits very little noise at quite high iso and blows away my D80 with it's 18-135mm kit lens. The first photo below is a 100% crop of the second photo in this post. The third view was shot at 75mm f/8 1/1000 iso 400. C&C greatly appreciated.

exif: 200mm f/8 1/1000 iso 720 (100% crop)



Original image. The sky here was intentionally blown by setting the white and black point on the steeple and clock.

Well who's a happy boy hey
I'd be smiling too if I was you.. the crop looks pretty darn clean.
So you'll be out shooting all weekend I guess hu?
Have fun, and I'm sure you'll post more shots from your new toys.
