Tummy shot

As I get older, those tummy shots get tougher to get. But sometimes it is worth the groan getting back up.

Excellent, David. You'll have to add a D750 (flip screen) to your arsenal for those low shots, lol. :-D :-D

I feel you are correct. Waiting to see how the new D500 looks.

besides getting old, getting muddy, keeping the camera safe, I have to worry about my dogs jumping all over me. Getting those "down to earth" shots calls for strategic planning and timing!!

:thumbup: The only problem is I don't use live view to focus. I like viewing through the lens via the prism.

I agree as far as preferences go but when I need to go low I only have 2 choices:
1. Use live view
or
2. Take the photo after I fell down

And advance calls to a contractor, to make sure the crane arrives at the right time to get me back up! I have been playing with a camranger, along with the remote tripod head that goes with it. It's all mounted on a Platypod Pro, but is really top-heavy that way. Besides, it is *so* complicated getting all the cables connected properly... The 'pod has holes so that it can be screwed to something, so I am trying to figure out some kind of board arrangement, to spread the weight/balance out, and maybe even have some handles so that I can pick the whole thing up without using the camera as the handle!
