pure roon

It is here, arrived at work today and even though I haven’t really had chance to play with it, I have taken one photo:

That is the first photo taken with the new D200. I hadn’t even played with any of the settings, I took it straight out of the box, clipped on a lens and shot.

Off to France now for a cousin’s wedding but I will have a few days first to play around with it. Hopefully I will have something worthwhile to show when I get back!

I am excited! I am getting a new camera tomorrow and I am really looking forward to it!

I have been using a Nikon D50 for nearly 2 years now and it is about time to upgrade as I am just not happy with the results it produces. The D50 suffers really badly in low light conditions and after I went on a photo shoot with Naomi Broady, the up and coming Tennis player, it is pretty rubbish at sports photography too. It just can’t keep up! The delay between the camera focusing and being allowed to press the shutter is just too long and if your subject is moving towards or away from you then it’s gonna be out of focus.

So back to the upgrade, as the new Nikon D300 is coming out prices on the D200 have fallen quite a bit so I have decided it is time to get into the profesional range. I was tempted by a D80 which is the simplified version of the D200, but I thought that in a years time I will just end up with the same problems I have been having with the D50.

So as I am getting a new camera I thought this would be a good opportunity to get out some photos out, some of which have been waiting to be processed for months!

So here are a couple from Sheringham, whilst on an Easter break with my parents:
