I will probably do that after I come back from vacation and set a camera up for macro again. The one thing I do like about the D7000 is it is a lighter weight camera. With the flash, L grip and diffuser attached it all becomes somewhat unwieldy for macro and heavier than I would like. I have toyed with the idea of going with what Douglass uses and that is a smaller body, maybe along the lines of the D5000 series just for the lighter weight. Very nice shots Dennis. I've really been enjoying the results I'm getting with my 800. You may want to give yours a try.
Have you noticed a much better image quality with the D800 over your previous camera?

I don't know if I would say "better" but, it seems to be a little more forgiving if I don't have my settings just right. The D800 has slightly less pixel density than my D7100 but, they seem to be more capable (if you will). I seem to be getting a much higher keep rate and crop quality with the D800. I have not intentionally run a side by side be comparison so my experience is very inconclusive. I'm not using the D7100 much anymore, but perhaps I should.Have you noticed a much better image quality with the D800 over your previous camera?
Between the weight of the 150mm macro lens and speedlight, I don't notice much difference in weight.
I was merely suggesting that you try it and see what you think :wink:

I appreciate your information. When I get back from my trip and set up my macro camera again I will hook it all up to the D800 to see how it does. Thanks.I don't know if I would say "better" but... (show quote)

Please let me know what you think once you give it a good run. I have my sights set on the D810 and need to decide if the D800e or D7100 gets the boot as I'm only allowing myself two cameras at a time.I appreciate your information. When I get back from my trip and set up my macro camera again I will hook it all up to the D800 to see how it does. Thanks.
