Hi gang. I have been using a demo unit of the Kodak DCS Pro SLR/n for almost a week now and I think I am going to buy a unit after testing it in various situations and overall I am quite happy with it (as long as Kodak fixes that magenta hue shift in the next firmware version).
This camera will be used for aerial photography (and other stuff). I tried it last weekend from a Cessna 172 using the AF-S 28-70mm. Shot mainly on f/5.6 and 1/500s (thats + 0,5 EV from measured) and the outcome was quite good. Would have been nice to be able to shoot at f/8 though, but from the Cessna I rarely dare to go slower than 1/500 (from a helicopter it's a whole different story. So I stared looking at those Nikon VR lenses and the 24-120mm f/3.5-5.6G ED-IF AF-S VR looks pretty good. It's fast enought for me but I want to know if someone has tested the sharpness compared to the AF-S 28-70mm ED f/2.8? Has someone out there both these lenses and can mabey give me any idea what to expect from the VR lens? Also Nikon claim that you gain 3 stops using the VR technology (i.e. 3 stops on the shutter speed - i my case I should be able to shoot at 1/125th and f/11) - does this statement hold? Thanks in advance for all your help Chris =============================================================== GO TO http://www.prodig.org for ~ GUIDELINES ~ un/SUBSCRIBING ~ ITEMS for SALE
