About as much fun as giving up your lawn tractor for a push mower!

Haven't done photography from my lawn tractor yet - even 5-axis IBIS can't help with my bumpy lawn.

I received a number of helpful hints when I asked about buying a used or a refurbished d750. It was a couple hundred dollars more than the used but the shutter count is only 1783 so it should last me as long as I can pick it up. Now to scratch up some green to get an FX lens. The 50mm and 90mm work but I really like a zoom. Saves walking back and forth. Thanks for your help.


Let's see some images!

Re: BROWN TRUCK IS HERE. Good choice on the refurb D750 - very nice camera, you will enjoy! As for your lens question ... totally endorse the Nikon 200-500 f/5.6E For the money - especially since you're scratching for dough, like most of us - this a superb lens. I.e., it's one hell-of-a-lens for a 5.6 and delivers sharp as a tack images, especially when used on a tripod. You won't be disappointed.

Oh, yeah ... the Brown Truck will be at my house tomorrow with an addition to the arsenal, a D810 - will have a hard time sleeping tonight.

P.S. There were two Nikon 200-500's posted for sale here in the classified in the last few days ... both really good deals ... would have bought one, but already have the lens.

While I appreciate what a zoom brings, I still like to throw a prime on and move around. I find that I see great shots I’d miss if I just stood there with a zoom.

speters, well, I've made it around the sun 82 times so I'm in the save mode on walking, zoom is in.
