p.1 #1 · Your best 400mm focal length shots!


Hey guys! I'm curious to see your best 400mm shots! It can be taken with any lens (80-400VR, 400/2.8, 70-200/2.8 + TC20e I/II/III, 300/2.8 + TC-14e I/II, Sigma "Bigma" or 150-500, Tamron 200-500, etc), and it can be shots of any subject, just as long as the focal length is about 400mm.

So bust out the big glass and show the Nikon community your best!

D70s + 200 f2 + TC20; wide open (f4); pretty heavy crop; maybe a little over-cooked (PP).

Same here... I'm trying to decide if I want to invest the $500 in the TC-20eIII for my 70-200/2.8 VR-1. Right now, I'm leaning towards a yes. lol

Wipe outs when you can see the eyes (oh S**T) this one was like watching slow motion and scared me because his hand stayed on the throttle through the whole thing (he was fine, first one in to check out the images)


I had a guy do that but he ended up sitting on the track with his hand still on the throttle and the bike literally did a circle around him...it was pretty funny to watch.

here's two of mine...I didn't shoot much at 400mm this year...here's two of my favorites.

1. won a contest with this one

2. I like this shot, this kid was cool, he's about 12 years old, stands about chest high and rides the piss outta this CBR 125.

My best? Cripes. I don't know. I don't have a "best." Here's one that's as good as any I suppose. Ask me the same question tomorrow and I'll probably come up with a different one. I do like to photo in blizzards. Nikon 80-400mm VR.
