I would love to test a D750 with the 24-85 and 16-35 lenses.

Probably my next purchase Jonathan.. ;-)

I like the feel of the D750... deeper grip than the D810 suits longer fingers. Even Jan liked it better than the D7100...and they are comparable weight.

I've long wanted to try the 16-35. My 17-35 is heavy being 2.8 and the 14-24 is not only heavy but the front lens is vulnerable at the sides between the hood petals. So I may add the 16-35 and then release the other two. I never go as wide as 14mm if I can help it anyway.

The 24-85 is tempting but a variable aperture lens. I wonder if the 24-120 constant f4 is any better?

16-35 f4 is a nice lens. Seems long like the 24-70 but produces nice results. I have a 17-35 f2.8 so cant justify the upgrade.

Picked up a box myself yesterday, contained a Coolpix P900, 24-2000 mm eq.

So far quite pleased with the quality of the camera and the pix.

A hand held moon shot at 2000mm eq. ISO 200 1/200sec.

Lovely shot Mike.

How much of a crop is that?

Fine quality from a bridge camera handheld with such a long focal length. Well done Mike.

No crop, this is a full frame shot.

Ran it through the trial DxO OpticsPro 10 software that Judith posted about and saved it at a reduced resolution for posting.

That's pretty impressive! I have a fuji bridge camera which is 35-1000mm and I'm always impressed by the quality and detail it manages at 1000mm.

Could you post the shot before you ran it through the DxO software for comparison.

This is the shot right off the camera, just reduced to 50% for the server.

Shot my first robbin this spring, a few days later than last year.

Nikon P900 at about 2200 mm. full frame handheld.

The bird was about 7 meters from me.
