Thanks for the responses. Bob, Dasheene is the restaurant at our resort so I am looking forward to that. Also it seems most of the suggestions are right in that area of the island so I lucked out.
Hopefully I will come back with several shots worth sharing.

I'm looking forward to seeing them.

Next month my wife and I will be going to St Lucia for a week. The resort we are staying at is at the Pitons so I have that covered. Are there any other "must photograph" places I need to know about?

All input appreciated

My wife and I went to St. Lucia in 2002. I recommend a visit to the Botanical Mineral Baths and Waterfall. Also we had dinner at Dasheene and watched the setting sun. That was a wonderful evening. You will have fun.

Canon EOS 7D Mark II Vs Nikon D500

Lots of good information here, thanks. I am always surprised that comparison weight and shutter lag aren't prominent because I feel those specs are important.

DXO Mark reviews the new 50 MP Canons

MT Shooter wrote:

For your shots? A 24MP Nikon D3300 or 18MP Canon T5i would both give you perfectly satisfactory results.

Thanks again Shooter. I used to use Nikons but now have a Canon 7D. I thought that either the 7DMark2 or the Nikon D750 would be right for me although both cameras are more than I need. Which would you recommend? Thank you for your time.

DXO Mark reviews the new 50 MP Canons

MT Shooter wrote:

Comparing any crop sensor camera to any full frame camera is always going to be a win for the full frame. The Canon wins as far as frame rate due to its dual Digic 6 processors, but fails miserably in any other direct comparison made between them, as expected.
These two cameras were never intended to be compared head to head as they are built to serve entirely different photographic needs.

Thanks very much for taking the time to reply. I shoot mostly grandchildren, general scenic and travel. What would you recommend? Thank again, in advance.

Thanks Shooter, your comments are always most informative. Except for the last line. Would I be too much of a trouble maker to ask what you think is a better camera, the Canon 7Dmark 2 or the Nikon D750? Regardless of your answer I always follow your remarks with interest.

Sidney bridge climb shoot

Russ1700 wrote:

I'm not all that certain that you were there as you don't appear to know how to spell Sydney. After all the publicity that the Sydney Olympics received,I would imagine that most people at least know how to spell its name.

Why so snarky? The fact is that no cameras are allowed on the bridge. Your remark is totally uncalled for.

ISO does it make a difference?

paulrph1 wrote:

Does it make a difference if I get a lens that is f2.8 or larger as compared to an f4 since now with digital the graininess is not as prevalent as it was with during the film days. Or can I get the cheaper f4 lens and adjust the ISO to compensate? It is only one stop. During film that made a big difference but with digital it seems to not be so dramatic.

That's exactly what I thought until this past weekend. I went to my grandson's graduation, set aperture and shutter to manual and let my ISO float (automatic). The results were not great. Based on my experience i suggest the largest lens you can afford. Good luck.

Best wishes to all UHH'ers from B&H Photo

Bob,

It would be my pleasure to meet you and show you the parts of B&H that customers don't get to see. This takes about 1-1.5 hours (leave yourself additional time to shop). Next week might be a little tight as our offices (me) are closed on 1/1. Therefore the following week would work best for me. You can PM me here or at hwaldner@bhphoto.com

Looking forward to meeting you.

HERSHEL

Thanks very much Hershel. I will try to get into the city either at the middle of January or in March. I look forward to meeting with you. Best regards, Bob

Best wishes to all UHH'ers from B&H Photo

Thanks for the good wishes Hershel. I live in Westchester but only buy in person. I drive into the city occasionally. Are you available to meet during the week or do you make special appointments to meet people from the UHH? I might drive in to the city and would like to meet you. You folks do a terrific job and have great customer relations. Keep up the great work.

Thanks Jerry, I will visit some other sites and take my time before giving in to my GAS. Also, I will take a trip to Manhattan and get a feel for the cameras.

Biased??? :lol:

Keep in mind that the main purpose for just about all sites is to advertise for their sponsors.

Good thought, thank you.

Thanks to all of you for the quick responses. That helps me put these reviews in perspective. I read this site daily and admire the broad knowledge and advice given by most of you. Three cheers for the UHH!
