This is the first SLR I have worked with, so I am still learning. The fast frames are impressive. Yesterday I photographed an eagle with prey. The photos were a little gory but attention getting. I am having some trouble getting too much light on bright days, but that is probably my lack of expertise contribution. I am living on a waterfront home above Puget Sound. I am waiting to get good whale and Orca pictures which I could never quite manage with slower cameras. I bought a new lens for this camera(17-70mmF2.8-4.5) and the zoom pictures,especially landscapes of nearby islands and the Olympic mountains are unbelievably clear. I expect to be learning about this camera for many years.
