Fantastic full-frame camera. If you want to take pictures this is it.
3 of 3 found this helpful You have propably already read this somewhere else,but this is simply a superb camera . It is on the heaver side, but it feels fantastic in your hand. All the buttons are where they are supposed to and you really do feel confident that it is not the camera failing, but your own photographic skills when things don't go right.
Auto-focus is superb. It grabs on to subject even in dimm light where the d7000 would of failed and that camera is no slouch either.
The view finder is nice and bright, but sadly only has 95% coverage, but this is no big deal really if you don't mind cropping a tad.
Yes it's 'only' 12megapixels, but still to this day I have not printed A1 posters, so I double this is going cause any sort of headache, and there are work arounds if you need it. Also as the image sizes are smaller than my d7000 file everything feels nice and quick on the computer when editing, allowing me to spend less time on the computer. happy days.
The colours are fantastic and the frame rate is easilly quick enough.
If you don't need video functionality nor are you a studio photographer I really can't see any reason why not grab this superb camera instead of the newer Nikons full-frames. I bet they are great, but you can bag a d700 for under £1000 and snap away for many years with total glee.

Its a fun game with silly humour combined with platforming. recommended.
Great fun. Intresting combination of average platforming/battling mixed up with a puzzle game. What brings this game truely alive is the lovely art and silly humour through out. Furthermore most DS platformers don't seem to be too challanging (except when collecting stars or other similar items) whereas hatsworth does push you to concentrate to beat the bosses.
Well worth a go.

A cheap and cheerful lens that takes great images.
A cheap and cheerful lens. If you don't have deep enough pockets for the 35mm 1.4 this is the lens to go for. 35mm view on ff is a ideal walk about lens and street lens.
The auto-focus is not fast nor slow and at F2 there is vingetting, this how ever isn't personally really an issue as generally when shooting at f2 you will be shooting portraits so having a bit of vingett is a-ok. Stopped down it is a sharp lens as one would expect from a prime. The bokeh is pleasant, but nothing special.
Don't bother getting this lens if your shooting DX you might as well go for the cheaper 35mm 1.8G. You can get it cheaper, its faster and produces similar images (note that it isn't really suitable to use on a full frame camera). Also if you've got nikons 24-70 2.8 you probably won't need this lens, unless you need a light travel option or don't want to be as intimidating while taking street photos.
None-the-less for the price this is a great lens to have in your ff arsenal. It's small so you can pocket it and have it handy when ever necessary and does what most primes do; takes great images with great colours and sharpness.
