Nice shot. I think the d70 has an electronic shutter too so it can do some crazy high shutter flash sync speeds.

Didn't want to ride my bicycle yesterday in the rain, so I went for a walk and saw this leaf floating. D800, 200mm f/4.

I sold almost all my canon gear. Not a canon basher, I just like techy stuff and fancied a change. Bought some olympus micro 4 / 3 rds stuff and am looking at a d800. Any owners with plus or minus points on this camera?

Nice shot Rick!

D800 is the best digital camera I have used.

Thanks Rick

Picked up a refurb D600 this past week. While it has a fairly bad case of the oil/dust problem and will have to be exchanged, I've officially fallen for Nikon. The sensor is so good I was almost tempted to keep it as-is. Now that I've had a few days and outings with it, there's really no way I can go back to my 6D setup permanently. Hopefully I'll win the dust lottery on the next try -- if not, I suppose I might have to wait a bit for refurb D610s to reach a similar price point.

Example of the power of "ETTL" (expose to the left) to maintain reasonable highlights, then recover deep shadows, at ISO 100:

Wouldn't dare try that on any Canon.

^ That is as good a demo as I have seen

Welcome to the dark side!

It does 1/500 with on camera flash but you can push it to 1/8000 if you use off camera flash, very nice indeed!
