Another from our trip to Banff National Park a few weeks back. Last one, I promise.

Never did share this one, did I? Used the kit lens at 18mm for this one.
The ghost is a buddy of mine who came out with me that night.

You get more out of your gear than most. I just take a bazillion shots and hope I get a few good ones. I've been too lazy lately. I just need to go out with my camera and start taking shots of anything interesting I find.

One of our favorites from this past summer, this one was a collaborative effort between my wife and I.

Given that I feel like a kid at Christmas, I wanted something appropriate for the D800's first shot.
50mm AI-S at f2.8, ISO 1600. Could have optimized this shot better, but it was a quick test to see if it worked. Anyway, I bought the right camera. Image #990 according to the EXIF, so they sent the one I paid for.

So what really happens once the camera hits the shutter's max counts? Just eventually stops working?

Sometimes shutters go out sooner, most times they last longer. I couldn't take the chance with the D5100, because I need it for review images, so I thought better to replace now than wait for it to get to 100k.
I expect the D800 will actually get less use - I've learned how to get the shots I want the first time, and I'm not machine gunning hundreds of shots at a time looking for daytime lightning anymore.

And if you need to, you can always use the D5100 for that.

Here's one that the wife got during a trip out to the Purcell Mountains in British Columbia this past summer. Not bad for a hand-held shot at f22.

Admiral, SK. First sunset with the D800 and 28mm AI. It blows my mind how much detail I am able to recover with this camera. This shot was underexposed.
I had fog and clouds to the east, fog and clouds to the west, but almost perfectly clear in town.

Smack dab on the border of Zone 5 and Zone 2; done a lot of mule deer hunting down there. Nice one Jeremy! Glad you're enjoying your new toy

Some more D800 goodness. I've gotten more hoarfrost shot in the last week than the last two years combined.

One of my faves from a trip taken in October of last year, up to the tip of a glacier between Radium Hot Springs and Panorama Village.
I used one of my favorite lenses of all time; the Sigma 24mm f1.4 Art series, and this shot shows the very striking effects that can be achieved with such a shallow DOF, but with significant distance from Camera to Subject and Subject to Background.

T'was a mighty cold blue hour this morning before sunrise. -22 degrees. Yeah, cold weather does hit the D800's battery fairly hard - going to need a backup battery for sure.
