Hit 105° F yesterday afternoon - fortunately it rained late. Supposed to heat up pretty much the same today, so out early to work with the new to me D 810. Yesterday tried a couple of zooms, was not terribly impressed - on the advice of a friend to "try your sharpest lens" these with AF Micro Nikkor 105 2.8 D. The camera appears likely to exceed my expectations.

All good, sharp shots. A little subject motion blur in frame #4 adds interest to me. I like it best.

Thanks! Am ambivalent about blur, but with bees & these types, it is hard to avoid. I've shot as high as 1/3200 and still got it.

Thanks! Beat the "book / user guide" and changed some camera settings, took some afternoon shots. Have had a lot of fine cameras in my life, but the potential on this one is amazing.
