D750 certainly auto-focuses well
« on: April 20, 2016, 19:10:49 »
...and I was only using the old 70-300 VR and not my new 70-200/4.0 VR.

I was aiming at the spots on the tadpole's back through some glurpy pond water.
And was getting a lot of reflection off the water back into the camera.

Quite a bit of falloff though with this lens.

1.  The scene.
2.  Unresized crop of tadpole. It was a BIG tadpole. Must be a bullfrog.

Papa Frog. (...or Mama?)

Aimed at the eye.

1. The scene.
2. Unresized crop of frog.

No edits. Used Photo Mechanic and NX2 to crop/resize.

The polliwog shot is impressive

D750 is nice.  It is well seasoned and the initial trouble"s" are well sorted out now.  I figure that Nikon "finally" solve the essential AF problems with D750.

The calibration at Nikon service is worthwhile.

As reported in an earlier thread, my D750's shutter broke a couple of weeks ago and Nikon lent me a D610.

You can ask Elsa how much bad language resulted from missing the D750's far superior AF!
