I had my 7 yr old Granddaughter for the day and we went for a walk. She wanted to take some pictures with my Nikon D300 which had a Sigma 70 - 300 mm normal/macro lens on so it was quite heavy for her. I was surprised how steady she held it( she does gymnastics and can do about 7 continuous pull ups on her chin bar) I took a picture of her with my phone camera and the Buddleia is one of the pictures she took.

Good picture and great that you get to share that time with your granddaughter
If I can make 1 suggestion ... make sure she puts the camera strap around her neck in case of an "oopsie". I'm almost 50 and always do it to prevent any mishaps and insist anyone picking up my camera does the same :)

Thanks axl100 for looking and for the comment. The camera has a harness which is across her shoulder.

Told Erin about the great comments she has had and she says thanks, I got corrected thought she can do 20 continuous chins on the bar not 7.

Thanks Hierloom Tomato Thanks for the thumb ups, she is very careful with it and always asks so I do not mind as her camera is a childs point and shoot which she has had for about 2 yrs. :D
