    Why is there no Still Life or Product sub forum ?

    Am I the only one here doing this kind of work ? And BTW, I've just upgraded to IE 10 on Windows 7 and can no longer create paragraphs. This is the only Vbulletin site where this is happening ??? VERY annoying ! Cheers, Don

    Chickadee (D800, new version 80-400, TC 17 E11)

    7360 wide cropped to ~ 4400 wide (4/3's ratio) and downsized to 1000 wide. 1/2000, iso 2000, F/9.5, Kuso says 650mm, no noise treatment. I actually plan to use the lens/teleconverter primarily on the D7100 but wanted to see how the D800 did with slightly less reach. Cheers, Don
