It is a risky business capturing three women chatting at the jetty

D3s (only 5k actuations) with 200mm f4 micro mounted.

Great lens

These are some excellent colors. Makes me want a D3S, but I never liked how the vertical grip area has no AF joystick on it. If I find it cheap enough (and unused enough) I don't think I'll care though.

Thanks! The lack of joystick doesn't bother me too much with this old af system. Not a ton of points like on the Z's. For the cost of these things it's a fun change of pace here and there.

I still use my D4/D5, I'm sure I'll more than survive using a D3S, since I have used one a few times to cover events. Always like the color reproduction from it.

The 45.7Mp Z 7 and Z7 II have 493 AF points and the 24.5Mp Z 6, Z6 II and Z5 have 273 points. I use perhaps 12? This is way overkill.
