    Default Proud owner of the new Nikon 200-500

    I had my eye on either the Tamron or the Sigma 150-600, but then Nikon came out with the 200-500. So somewhat less distance but apparently it was supposed to be dead sharp even wide open. Well, check for yourselves, but I am happy with the new glass. Actually affordable ...

    By the way, the watermark on the images is a scan of my dad's logo, when he had the photo-studio/shop in Germany.... I am proud to continue in his footsteps.

    500mm @ ISO640, f5.6, 1/1000 tripod



    500mm, @ ISO400, f8, 1/250 handheld

    Congrats! All of the shots are nice, but that last one is super. Almost looks 3D with the creamy bokeh.

    VERY nice, and VERY sharp also. Def a keeper. Love the detail in the rope and the windings on it.
    Reality is a nice place to visit, but I wouldn't want to live there!
