[QUOTE="J-see, post: 377353, member: 31330"] I put the duo on the D3300 and took it out today and must say it was rather disappointing. The main problem is light. To shoot this handheld I'd require a shutter of at least 1/800s or more. Anything slower suffers. To shoot sharp, I need to close down to f/11. And exactly those requirements shows the weakness of this combo on a DX. Compared to my D750, the D3300 seems to gather light through a pinhole and even when I push ISO, I never get enough light. Sure I could go ISO 3200-6400 or up but I prefer the shots not to be an impressionistic artwork. While in theory I can get sharp shots, in practice it doesn't work too well for anything moving faster than a turtle. At least not on a DX. Next time I'll see what the FX can do. [/QUOTE]
