Do you all use focus peaking for manual focus?

Which girl you all like the most?

Hmmm, this kind of photography shouldn't the Z6ii and Z7ii be able to do as a fine?

Nikkor 400mm f/2.8S

The Nikkor 105mm f/1.4E is not a decent lens, it is an excellent lens. That price tag puts it together with the 70-200mm f/2.8E and 24-70mm f/2.8E though.

Bokeh like the 200mm f/2, except it is lighter and you can stand nearer to the subject too. If you mount it on your D780, it would become front heavy. The lens itself is heavy and with that 82mm filter size, it will take up a lot of space in your bag. Since you are using the 85mm, you would have to take a step back to get the same framing as the 85mm. Good for head shots and half body shots.

But then again the 70-200mm f/2.8E will take up even more space in your bag! Why don't you use your 70-300mm f/4.5-5.6E?

Last time 135mm f/1.8S was on the Z mirrorless roadmap but now it is not there anymore.

Price is US$13,996.95 ~ RM58612.23

Compared to the Nikkor 400mm f/2.8E which is RM40159.00

The lens hood alone is US$1070.95 ~ RM 4484.60.

This lens is specially made for the military?

You bought D500 last time? How was it? What lens did you use? This camera's AF system is one of Nikon's best as it uses the AF system from the D5.

Nikon is set to raise the prices of its cameras and lenses imminently, with Canon having already hiked up the prices of its EF and RF-mount optics by as much as $1,000.

Increases to Nikon stock prices will be effective from early April, as a result of disruption from ongoing supply chain issues that have insured a continued cost increase to component parts and logistic charges.

Canon and Nikon raising prices on select cameras and lenses by up to $1,000

How is the market for the F mount lenses now? Also, people might try to buy more lenses in this month alone based on this announcement.

What 70-200mm lens did you get?

This one right? The one where the zoom ring is on the inside (closer to the mount) like on the 24-70mm f/2.8E.

Nikon's 70-200mm lenses are excellent. Hope to see your awesome shots soon!

That lens on D500 becomes 300-750mm f/5.6. You should be able to get great close-up shots of the cars from the paddock area or from the stands.

Where to see your awesome shots?

These are great shots! I am guessing you are standing in the grassy area around the paddock to get the panning shots.

And you also got photos of the ladies too

It's great that Nikon is still updating the D500! Seems like it is still supported even though it has been discontinued. APS-C version of Z9 coming?

What is the issue with your D780 Eye AF?

What did you get?

That's the new version with the modelling light in the front?
