I agree with Parker. The 18-105 is an excellent lens. Its a bit more, but I really love my 16-85mm. I only wish it were faster @85mm. I take mostly indoor shots so the wider angle works more in my favor. 50mm is by far my favorite to shoot with.

Love the shot of the Atom.. such a sick car!

One thing that I find odd. Is how sharp and clean the subject looks. But the background seems quite noisy?

think that was at 800 ISO so that may be the "noise" you are seeing. i don't really see any though. are you referring to the bokeh (aka the out of focus area) behind it? if so, that's a product of the lens and the f-stop

Im no pro thats for sure. It was just a curious observation. It could be "bokeh" that im seeing

Curious anyone in for a D800 vs 5d iii pros/cons debate? Anyone upgrading?

I sold my D7000 awhile back in lieu of a D700s that i inherited. Even though the D7000 was the better camera.. I guess i kept the D700s because it was my grandfathers

Now im looking for a FF body to upgrade to and im thinking of bailing ship on nikon for canon L glass. That D800 sure does take great shots at low ISO.

What are you referring to as the D700s?

Because if you are saying the D7000 is better than the Nikon D700... Well then, I honestly don't follow... lol.

So sorry guys i ment D300s!

Even so im sure some could justify the D300 as being better for thier use because of the more pro body construction. But if you compare stats the D7000 seems to come out ahead in all but AF cross points and full magnesium body.
