I think it is JK confusing you by answering the question before last :lol:

Yes I have a D610 now and these images were taken with it and the 70 - 300 lens. A heavy combination but manageable as I don't go far with it. I have a battery grip on it and it nestles nicely on my fingers when I am just carrying it.

I couldn't agree more with you, the FX is much easier to use, more accurate on the focusing and much faster on burst shooting which I use a LOT while panning with the horse.

Having taken on board your comments elsewhere about DOF / aperture / exposure / ISO I have found a happy mixture that gives enough DOF while minimising movement blur of swishing tails - horses' tails move way faster than anything else!

These images were taken by a friend - I just set the camera up and told her to keep the focus point on my leg ...
