A great family shot...



This was taken in complete darkness with the 24 - 120 VR lens and SB-800 flash, ISO at 400. Very impressed that it focused so fast considering I couldn't even see what I was focusing on

Beautiful shot Woody, man that is crisp!!

Warm shot.

I especially like how Tigger and that worm thingy are watching over them.

an absolute winner - no doubt about it.

Gold. Did you have the Auto Focus assist lamp firing? (ie the camera detected low light and fired that up) Perhaps thats how it focused. A very nice piece of glass anyway, and a great photo.

Lovely pic woody - did you bounce the flash?
The absence of any harsh shadows seems to indicate that you did.
Certainly a great shot under the circumstances.

So VR does make sense, isn't it? and VR club deserves the REDs

Umm not sure

When I half pressed the shutter a red grid was displayed over the image so i pressuem this is how it focused. What I was impressed with though was it focused as quickly as if I had the lights on!

Sure did. I always bounce the flash when indoors.

Whilst the lens did well I actually had the VR function turned off on this one

I am looking after him on Friday after I visit you to collect his new D70

Can't spoil him to much by giving him VR as well...
