Lens recommendations for Nikon D40

**Poseidon** · 01-16-2007, 08:45 PM

Pretty Good, but like Gene said that is a lot of noise. What ISO was that shot at? Also the white balance is a tad on the cyan side, not quite blue, not quite green. Your image is certainly sharp, and the subject is the focus point of the image. (I know that sounds strange, but sometimes what is actually in focus is not the intended subject.)

I know I suggested trying higher ISO settings to help eliminate camera shake, maybe back it down a stop or 2 and try again. ( I guess I am just spoiled with my Canon's high ISO performance....)

Keep trying, and keep posting.

I actually used a tripod for this one so I may have to try different settings such as the ISO set at 100

the 70 - 300VR is a nice lens. it has the vibration reduction on it also
