In the shop for the last time.  There were gone a few weeks after our visit, museums or the scrap heap.

But great photos, and very nice hanger.

Trying out the new D60 yesterday, had to find something to shoot, so grabbed a shot of this one at Boeing Plaza, Lancaster

What do you think of the D60 ?........I LOVE my 40X......

On sunny days set it to .7-1.0 negative comp.

[akradecki]

Well, I've had it all of about 27 hours now, and so far I love it. I found out about the neg comp that you mentioned as well, when I washed out several of the NTPS BO-105 pics I shot (see the Mojave thread). Any other tips/tricks would be appreciated!

The only other thing at the top of my head is you can go into a hanger and set it to ISO 400 and the quality is SUPERB......i don`t see any noise like i do with the D70. Feel free to use ISO 400 when ever you feel it necessary.

Also set the colors to double vivid , its spectacular.....and don`t use automatic , it will overexpose on sunny days.

The cameras a bit small but is so light with the 55-200VR lens ....it can hang around my neck for hours without ever bothering me.....and the lens kicks ass.

I really LOVE the camera , it makes pcis as good as anything the D300 does.......we`ll see about the 3 focus points  during air-to-air , but so far so good.
