p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Nikon 1 V3 nails the focus, tracking at 20 fps so does the D300s at 8 fps | |
I posted this thread on the Alternative Gear forum, I don't even know why, probably because my main gear now for general picture taking is the Olympus OM-D E-M1 with a few first class lenses.
However I am still a Nikon guy in heart as well, and still have the good old and very reliable D300s with a couple of lenses and the Nikon 1 V3 and a V2 bodies with 5 lenses. I just love the Nikon 1 system since the beginning starting with the V1, then the V2 and now the V3.
The V3 to me lives up to or exceeds my expectations and tracks moving animals like a dream at 20 fps. On the pictures below I tried the Oly E-M1 but the tracking failed miserably, so I continued with the V3 with the 30-110 lens and the D300s with my exceptionally good copy of 70-300mm.
Below you will see a couple pictures taken with the V3 and one with the D300s. Both worked fine and tracked the very fast moving Cheetahs at 50 mph with approx 95% in-focus results. Most of my pictures were shot with the V3 since the 20 fps has a big advantage selecting the picture taken at the right split of a second. Hope you enjoy them.
