Playing With My New Toy

There is no other way to say it. This camera is my new toy. It is a very functional toy that I will use for a long time though. It arrived this morning via the wonderful UPS man, and I put it on my 300mm lens and went to the tennis center. This was a perfect venue for a first test because it is indoors with lights that vary a bit. This camera has a new flicker sensor that gets rid of that variation in the photo. I have no idea how it does it, but that it really seems to work. I can’t wait to try this out in a really bad flickering situation. Of course a new camera makes me wish for the awful conditions that I normally run away from. I will have a more in depth look at the camera next week. This weekend I have a few things to shoot to see just what this thing can do.

Below are a couple of other shots that I liked on the day.
