DSCF1499_28-200G inMacro.JPG

heavy overcast

This is from one of my early test shooting situations of the 28-200 AF G Nikkor,which has an amazingly close minimum focusing distance of 14 inches at all focal lengths from 28mm all the way to its 200mm max telephoto setting. I took this photo at 1/180th second at f/16 using manual, centerweighted metering set to -1/2 stop. I focused manually,and had to flip the limiter switch OFF to focus this close, and this close is at minimum focusing distance. Focal length is 200mm. So this is,in effect, a minimum focus distance,maximum reproduction ratio closeup for this little featherweight zoom lens. Not too bad really. Early afternoon diffused skies (around 2:00 PM) after a light spring rain made for an easy exposure.

I really enjoy your naration on your photos. I helps me learn and grow in my photos. I can tell that you are a natural teacher, that is comfortable with his own abilities and limitations.

Thank you again, and I have added your site to my favorites for future reference.

God bless, and keep teaching us.
