[QUOTE="crb999, post: 538078, member: 41742"] Hi Shakers, I don't understand your reference to an FX lens as opposed to a DX one. For many years I have used that actual lens with my D2X and the D2X before it without problems. VR was turned on but I take your point. Most of the shots were landscapes with only water as the foreground but others were zoomed to contain the whole of the front of a house for example. That represents pretty much a flat plane and the day was bright, just short of sunny. I understand you last comment well but this was the first foray with this camera and I was going to a new place that I may not visit again so I chose a tried and trusted lens and on Nikon's advice, I selected Auto. On the D2X there is no Auto. I am familiar with the nested command structure used in these cameras but this first time with the D5500, I really wanted to be safe! So much for that then. [/QUOTE]
