I took this shot about 15 min later (probably time does slower on boats). It was pitch freakin' dark dudes.

my exif reader says 65535 though.. wow!! that's max ISO hahaha...

he said in the other thread that it was a firefly watching cruise, I was able to do it once..and yet its super duper dark... for you to be able to see the fireflies in the mangrove trees.. much like a christmas tree.

that photo is Crazy, now what kind of NR software could clean that up? :lol::p

hello everyone, hope its a good one for ya! and Stealthy, welcome back from teh dead ^_^

EDIT:
ya 24-120 looks good but I'll wait for reviews. thats a huge focal range covered. Lets wait and see how it performs.

Uhm....Canon has a 24-105 f/4 thats perfectly good and the old 24-120 was a good lens as well you know...theres no reason the new one shouldnt be any good..

How much is the Canon 28-300? :p

About double. I know it's an "EL" lense though... which makes it "gooder".

I'm actually really interested in the 28-300. I know it won't be great, but I know 2 people who had/have the 28-300 L and like it as a walk about lens (despite the weight).

I might have bought the Canon version if it weren't for the price. Going to disney land with that lens or on a tour or something, would be good. You don't need huge quality, but being able to go from wide to a longish tele in one lens would be pretty handy.

I'll wait for reviews.

You have an excellent point..if the Nikon can deliver decent performance throughout the range it could be a VERY nice little walkaround...and the price as you said isnt that bad against the Canon
