" Friendly robin in full voice, to find a mate! " / Erithacus rubecula - Taken at Bradgate Park Northwest of Leicester - UK

On Explore - March 14, 2022 - Thanks to all my Flickr friends!

 

 

Windy morning and young friendly Robin! I didn't chase him he followed me! and he gave me this lovely pose! I hope you like it.

 

 

Exactly 6 years later, I swapped my Nikon 200 - 500mm f/5.6 lens with a lightweight 500mm f/5.6 PF (Phase Fresnel)

 

The obvious advantage of the 500 PF is weight savings as well as smaller size for better handling.Time will tell with the photo quality whether it is worth the wait or not.

 

Due to my background as a black and white analog photojournalist, I keep abreast of technology changes. Every new model or technical change needs time.

 

While writing these lines, my first digital camera experience 20 years ago is from the days of Nikon D100, today Advantages of mirrorless cameras 45.7- megapixels shoot with the full-frame the new flagship camera Nikon Z9.

 

This is an incredible technological advance. I have been using Nikon D850 for about 1.5 years. It is a professional level, 45.7 megapixel, full-frame workhorse.

 

How long will the Nikon D850 hold this position as a DSLR, it already has a question mark. Nikon rumors are swirling at the moment to give us an idea of where the brand will go next?

 

 

Thank you so much for visiting my stream, whether you comments , favorites or just have a look.
