You are full of surprises Jens ;-) I wonder how many posts you have sent the list telling us that the D is useless for action photos? And now, what do you do? You post an action shot ;-D You are a strange character. Coming from me, that is a compliment. I like strange characters.
Anyone taking bets on when Jens will post a pictures using P TTL flash? My bet is ten dollars on within 6 months ;-) Nice shot BTW, Jens. Shooting football is hard. It is hard to predict the next move in the game. At least when the game is bad, in a good game you will find a rhythm. Note to myself: I need a set of fresh batteries.
