What r ya shooting?  :)

A camera :)

 

These were taken with two different cameras.  One is a Nikon D300 with a 28-300 Nikon Lens, the other is a Nikon D800e with a 24-70 Nikon Lens.  The second shot is actually a stitched five shot panorama made up of five separate portrait oriented pictures.

Always a beautiful sight.  Nice Pics.  Not as spectacular as other years due to the drought.  We have a lot of ash that drops early, so looking like winter already.  Dread when the emerald ash borer gets here, tons of firewood.

I was going to say...is this a test?

 

My guess.

 

Most are shot F8 to F11, ISO100, 1/500, full frame, somewhat wide, like 35-50.

Nothing over F8, many at F5.6 or less.  Most at ISO 200 or even 400.  Nothing over 1/250th.  The D800e is full frame the D300 is DX (crop sensor).  But I will give you most were 24-50 mm :)

 

The settings you suggest are all excellent ones for good shots in good light, but that is not always possible.

Well, I was just guessing anyway ;).   I know the photos that I take that seem to be the keepers all run at a variation of what I suggested above, but I shoot on a Crop(Canon 80D) and when I stop down off the min F-stop the clarity of my lenses improve.   Therefore if you're shooting a 2.8 and stop it down to 5.6 or something, the same thing probably happens.  I tend to take most of my landscape shots hand held and even with stabilization 1/250 appears to be about the limit to prevent motion blur, your mileage may vary.

 

Very nice shots however, thanks :)

    • We never let then inside.  Last re-evaluation was 6-7 years ago, wife politely told him that he was welcome to look around the property and he could look in the windows. He saw two white resin chairs in the basement and told her that this constituted a finished basement. And everything in the basement is bare concrete/ cinder block, and mechanical systems. Nothing finished about it. Ultimately he relented and I'm sure that was a ploy to coerce us to allow him in
    • I use an Alien Gear cloak tuck (IWB) with my Shield.  Neoprene back - in the summer it does feel warm but doesn't rub or chafe.   https://aliengearholsters.com/ruger-lcp-iwb-holster.html Could also go with the shapeshift as it has multiple options - OWB/IWB, Appendix... https://aliengearholsters.com/ruger-lcp-shapeshift-modular-holster-system.html
    • The  12-1 compression ratio L88 is long gone. This is GM's updated version. it might be  pump gas 10-1 engine The L88 was a aluminum head  cast iron block engine with a nasty solid lifter cam. the  ZL1 was a all aluminum  12 or 13-1 compression ratio engine with the best forged internal parts at the time and had a even nastier solid lifter cam 
    • I like my regular carry holster.  OWB leather with belt slots.  I've been carrying for over a year and it was comfortable and I hardly even noticed it.  I carry (usually) a Ruger LCP .380 - light, convenient, tiny. But...today I ended up taking it off an leaving it home after a few hours. I cut down a big maple tree a few days ago and I spent 3/4 of today loading and unloading firewood into the back of my truck and a trailer.  It was a warm day, I was dirty, tired, sweaty, and my holster was rubbing against my side.  The leather and exposed metal snap was no longer comfortable. I'm thinking about adding a layer of something to that part of the holster to soften the contact.  Anything insulating will make it worse.  I don't want a sweaty, hotter holster against my skin.  I'm imagining something thin, breathable, that won't absorb sweat, and softer than leather, metal snaps, and rivets.   But I have no idea what would work. I'm hoping somebody else has already figured this out and I can just do what they did. Any suggestions appreciated.
    • Check the primers on the ammo you didn't shoot yet. Are they fully seated? If the primer is not just below flush with the back of the case, the first hit can seat it better then the second hit ignites it.
