To be fair loads of us do this with our NIkons anyway!

But folks with Nikon do that with a single image only :D
 
The Peak Design slide is just perfect, just took the kids out on their bikes to the park (one still learning to ride) and I would not usually dream taking my camera (unless it was in a bag), with the sling I hardly knew it was there, it is so comfortable and very easy to adjust with no faffing around, very happy indeed.

I have it connected to the original strap mountings, i wanted to use the tripod mount that it came with but it does not fit my BeFree tripod, so just need to work that out.

You need to buy the adaptor for it to fit the Manfrotto Tripods.. that if the BeFree tripod head got the normal Manfrotto Mount?
 
Also your right the Peak Design Slide is brilliant. I can just pull up the strap to bring camera further up my back before I chase the little one if she runs off. No problem at all for me..

Care to share a few pics with the DC, Lee?

70-200 does render particularly nicely

And i guess the 50mm isn't REALLY that bad

Nice ones David. She is beautiful. I am keeping the Tamron for photos like these. The compression works like magic.

To be fair I do use a Nikon F4 and F100 film camera regularly as well... so some of those lenses live on those cameras.

Do you have some images online taken with the 105 DC?

Cheers guys. Something i want to do this year is to try and crack the so called vanishing point with my portrait stuff. It's a big heavy lump, but the 70-200 is a lovely bit of kit. Iain Blake uses the vanishing point so well. If i could become half as good as him then i would be really happy. All with a 50mm too!

LOL, Solo Man has set the lens ownership benchmark. Is the one in bold a copy paste error?

Really like this style, not really considered using a vanishing point with portrait before. I think you'd need the 58mm for this though minnnt :sneaky:

I do indeed. @blakester has 2 fantastic threads running on here. Some of his stuff is really top drawer. CLICKY

58mm... Pfffffft. What's that?

Thanks George, haven't got out much with the new camera and lens combo so most shots are of the dog or cat lol, going to Belgium for work tomorrow for a few days so hope to get some spare time to get out and shoot, but we'll see.

Going to be a tight schedule, may get a couple hours in Brussels but prob not until 10pm on Friday night. If all else fails, going back to Amsterdam in April for work, but most of my Flickr consists of Amsterdam pics (been going there for work for approx six years, started with the trusty old D40), but saying that, not been with a 750 ;-)

Oo! oo! Can I join your gang? Just ordered a D750 (nervously waits.. have I done the right thing?)

You've done the right thing, simple. Welcome to the club, just to give you a heads up, you may want to cut up the credit cards, this thread does not help if you want to refrain buying lenses lol

Must be some forum glitch.
