My wife and I went to the Jersey shore this weekend. And since it was a full moon I decided to do some night scenes. My tripod head has a problem that it still moves some when locked down so some did not turn out. I am guessing the breeze moved it. But a few did. Feedback welcome as it was my...

Hello all, I use a power chair and have struggles using a tripod. So I use a monopod a lot. I had tried a ball head on it and did not like it at all. Then I went without a head and it was OK but not ideal. Tried a one way swivel head made just for monopods and did not like that at all. Then I...

Hello all, I was in my neighbors back yard to photograph my grand daughter in there pool so I just grabbed my 70-300 VR lens. I have not used it since I got my 200-500. When I got my 200-500 I knew it was a awesome lens. But until you go back to your older lens do you realize how good it is. I...

Hello folks, I took my 200-500 out for the first time today. A little puzzled. I was shooting with my D300. My shutter speed was 1/1600 sec. ISO between 320-800. Most with a F stop of F8. I was shooting a Eastern Screech Owl sitting in a tree. Not moving at all. I took about 400 shots between...

I am so excited. I got my new lens today. Sold a bunch of stuff that was sitting around the house not getting used and raised enough for it. I can't wait to try it out. This is the biggest lens I have ever owned. The Nikon 200-500 ED VR. I look forward to sharing pictures with you all. There is...
