My main photographic interests are Land/Seascape, Architecture, Wildlife and Infrared. I have noticed that the pictures taken with my D100 Infrared camera always seem to be pin sharp, yet the stuff I took with my D3 often lacked that sharpness. Hence, when the opportunity to get a D800 presented itself, I decided to take the jump. According to all the reviews I read the pictures edges soften with the slightest movement at this size. As I am getting older and my arthritis takes over telephoto lenses are getting to be more important as I can no longer follow the rule that the cheapest telephoto lenses are your legs. The ability to heavily crop did not enter my equation as I always try to compose in camera, but with my inability to get close to many subjects, cropping has now entered the equation. Still, time will tell and I am going to create a D800 gallery on my SmugMug account so watch this space.
