Dr.Nikon Loc: Honolulu Hawaii

Took the D850 out for its first trial run on Sunday at a single Bird of Paradise at the Bunch Bowl of the Pacific on Sunday ...two hours at one plant and waaalaaa..

The data will surprise you .. a lot of you .. a D850 paired to a 200-500 5.6 Nikon ... no .. but what about the 105.. 1.4..1.8 ..or the 85mm ..or the 24-70 ..or the 14-24 ..yes I have them all.., but ...,what about a prime macro ... and what about 500mm .. didn’t use the sweet spot of that 200-500 lens .., say 320mm 410mm ..or ..

And a lot of you getting the new D850 and are wondering about a cheap 200-500 / 5.6 ...why .., it’s not considered a prime ...well.., well..., ya .. well what ..

You still want a Sigma.., go,ahead ...

I think that Dr.Nikon is pointing to the high quality of the lens in a semi-macro closeup setting at maximum zoom that no one expects from it. Having been considering the Sigma and Tamron 150-600 lenses, he just convinced me to go with the Nikon. FABULOUS SHOT!

Just love that gecko. He sure adds to that bird of paradise. The untouched photo is magnificent -- am impressed with the D850.

After much practice, I'm finally having better luck with the same combo, but nothing like that spectacular image. You've redeemed my faith in that lens!
