yea, it was pretty misty that morning. We were quite lucky to be shooting from high ground. My friends got some awesomes shots. I still have yet to review mine properly yet. Feels like going out tmr morning and hunt for more sun rise.

HDR photo right? can see the "halo" trace around especially at the guy caps

I didnt intend it to be High dynamic Range~ it was one photo in raw. I just tweaked it in Lr and resize n watermarked in Ps. The "Halo" is from bumping up Clarity slider to 100 value.

I was there just for a while only during lunch time yesterday, didn't see her in action.

anyone going to PC Fair tomorrow ?

Cute gal..

pc guru girls are nice and gorgeous...XD...went the area there two time just for them..

salute this people la, go pc fair also want to bring such a long lens

look at his muscle

errr...i thought its normal? 70200 only wor...not 300 or 400mm

ya 70-200 small lens.
on friday i saw some tryhard with a sigma and it looked like a 100-300 f/2.8.

omg.....use telephoto lens in event with tight spaces and people walking around?

what are they thinking want to play depth of field? or scare to ask for photos

they just want to fill the frame with something big

You need to apply a little SKII for her

200mm on a FF isn't much of a zoom to be honest. Its something like people bringing 18-135 on a crop LOL. No big deal la ._.

went pc fair walk walk, hanging camela duno do what so i only got this shot haha ><

Ehhh I thought Jawsus is still using his Alpha A580 lol

Hahaha, I used 70-200 for my first PC fair le on D90. Also like that shoot what.

haha..ya..jawsus is still using his sony...and if you look clearly..that is sony's 70-200..not canon 1

LOL I never like to use my original straps that comes with the camera body. All my original straps are never used. My D300 and D700 (as with D800 too) straps are still unused. Still in wraps in the box like the day I got it.

Yes, exactly. Something like trying to see what kind of details your current lens lineup can resolve. Surprising that my "old" 135mm f/2 and 85mm f/1.4D can still do. Screw driven lenses are quite snappy and lively on the D800.

I need to RTFM one of these days when I'm on the throne (toilet bowl).

I keep it on CH but I burst 2 or 3 at most depending. Useful especially in situations when you cannot communicate with your Thai subjects to do this and that post or tell them to repeat that position since the first frame was accidentally cropped off the head / hand...

No. In playback mode, you can just view the focus point you used.

I think you still need to. The AF focus layout is similar to D700 and it's concentrated in the middle.

Depends on who's using the D800... You're a working professional. Most people are serious enthusiast and likelihood of WANTING to print 36MP is not something you would want on a daily basis.

It's just like having a Lambo for your daily drive. Not so convenient with maintenance, pot holes etc but nice to have. If someone says, hey let's head for the track, you'd won't be out of place !

Yup. Some people are armed with handholding the 300mm f/2.8.

If it's a Sigma, it's 120-300mm f/2.8. 100-300mm is an f/4 only lens.

If not wrong, Sony 70-200mm f/2.8 SSG lens is still the most expensive 70-200mm lens compared to other manufacturers.

in AF-C if you recompose it will still only focus within the AF focus layout area (so no fundamental differences), so with this face detection feature the face of the subject will always be in focus(around the AF area) and you can put all your attention on the composition. Depending on how well it works, I think the days of getting frustrated because image is OOF after recompose may well be gone for good.

since you have the camera you should try it out how well does it work. Put ur settings to AF-C and Auto-area AF and then do some test. It doesn't need to be a real person, you can even shoot poster with a face.

I don't know how to use SKII.
