    Excellent captures Ben. I still miss my D2H. Both cameras do a fine job but the D300 lets you crop a bit mire.

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"

    this is true
    I think I'll practice my tech on the D300 and send the D2 in for some
    needed service but yes I'm keeping them both thumb.gif

    Sorry Ric, I'm more artist then Scientist so I'd guess maybe 10%.
    The Hummer was close to begin with maybe 20'. I was using my 300 + 1.7

    Maggie say Thanks :Dwave.gif

    They're all really good, which just proves the old adage, "it's not the camera, it's the subject". rolleyes1.gif
