However, Rockwell also says that the +1magenta WB fix is actually a little too much and wishes there was a smaller incremental fix. Being new to digital photography, and looking for my first full-frame dslr, I was concerned about this because it seems to indicate carelessness on Nikon's part (I'm looking at new Canon D6 as well). But in the legion of email posts on B&H website on the d600, the issue never comes up, unless I missed it.

In referring to the LCD, he says that it's a tiny bit too yellow which might go away with use.

Hmmm..looks like the magenta correction was a little overkill on this pic LOL

No unfortunately it's a fixed lens camera. It does have alot of ISO settings & white balance settings and a powerfull 36X (864 MM) zoom lens which I had full out for the humming bird. I was actually about 25 feet away sitting on my pic-nic table with a mini tripod.



I find the zoom lenses on these two cameras quite impressive!

I am an Oly fan also. I started with a C8080 and worked my way up the E series until I reached the E3,e5 and E30. I love the old glass and have a fair (20+) collection of OM mountlenses from 25mm to 500mm. I don't have many of the digital lenses. Just the 14-42, 40-150, 9-18, 14-54, 14,54, 70-300,50-200, and a 1.4x teleconverter. As you can now tell I am a bit of a dinosaur so forgive some of my posts. I even use antique tripods.


I've always been curious about the Olympus E series.

Sounds like you have quite the collections!

How about it Johnny U, Want to share your secret?

Azrrt76: What lens did you use for the Quail?


I used the zoom lens on my Olympus sp 810 uz camera. The ISO for the humming bird shots was 200 & 160. F STOP 5.3 & shutter speed at 1/320 sec.


NO WAY! What are the chances that we would have used almost the same camera, lol. Very impressive captures you have there. Does the 810 come with manual settings for the aperature and SS?

My settings were ISO 200 117mm f5.1 and 1/400.

Azrrt76: What lens did you use for the Quail?


I took that with my Olympus SP-800 UZ point and shoot. I guess you could say its a bridge camera, but it doesn't offer manual settings as far as aperture or shutter speed. It does have a 30x wide optical zoom lens. I was about 20 feet away when I took this pic. This camera can take excellent pictures in some circumstances and in other circumstances well we can blame me and say I just never mastered using it....i.e. low light situations. The camera's lens is 4.9-147mm/f2.8-f5.6.

Nice shots!

#1 gives the whole scene.

The colors in #2 are vivid and the dancers are sharp.

#3 is a little dark, but otherwise a good capture IMO!

Sounds good.

I have already decided that my first lens purchase will be a prime lens! I can't wait!
