Matt Laur Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 Important: please keep your image under 1000 pixels on the longest side for in-line viewing, and please keep the FILE SIZE UNDER 300kb. Note that this includes photos hosted off-site (at Flickr, Photobucket, your own site, etc). Are you new to this thread? The general guidelines for these Wednesday threads are right here:http://www.photo.net/nikon-camera-forum/00W7km. This forum's moderators are allowing up to three Nikon Wednesday images per week, so share some work! I rarely have a reason to crank ISO up to 6400 on the D810 - it's not really meant for that kind of shooting. But when you turn on the back yard floodlight and the friendly neighborhood red fox is essentially posing for a snapshot, you do what you gotta do in poor light in the middle of the night. So let's hear it for grain and noise and marginal image quality when, let's face it, sometimes it's just entertaining to quickly get that unexpected shot. Happened to have an f/2.8 lens mounted, so that helped with the shutter speed for sure. So let's see some "Hey, at least I got the shot!" kinda shots this week. Or anything! Just share some photos on this Nikon Wednesday. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Wilcox Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 Still getting used to my Z7 & 24-70 f/2.8. Fortunately I have a couple of patient subjects who put up with it... (its now also the desktop wallpaper on my Mac). 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matthew Currie Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 I've been trying with limited success to catch a dragonfly on the fly. So far I have not gotten past the "at least I got the shot" level, but at least..... 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes they tend to spin, other than that their pretty good. not plastic but rubber. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chulster Posted June 12, 2020 Share Posted June 12, 2020 Yes they tend to spin, other than that their pretty good. not plastic but rubber. So if you're gripping the rubber piece tightly while applying strong torque, does the piece slip and spin then? Or only when gripping lightly?

It spins, I just move it out of the way, thought about a little super glue but havent tried that yet, I have others that do not seat very well in the screw slots, these seem to do a much better job with a tighter fit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
