I will probably come to UK to buy the D500/D750 and lens or at least try to get some hands on before the purchase. It is much more difficult here to attend these events as they tend to happen in Madrid or Barcelona.

Yes, the pointing is a bit sad. Better knocking it down like I did with mine, most people don't even need a chimney for the TV aerial nowadays.

iPhone...


Clearing up afterwards.

Finally decided.
I will get the Nikon 200-500mm for my D500. When the camera comes into stock at Amazon and starts shipping I can look forward to testing both as well.
The good thing is I can also use it on my Fujis but only in MF mode.

It is ordered I just need to wait for it to arrive.
So two Nikon packages to arrive. :-)

The 5.6 bit isn't going to be noticeable on a D500.

So effectively (on the D500) you will have a 300-750, f5.6. Very handy.

Now I have to decide with all this new investment how do I work best with my Fujis and my Nikons.
The Nikons are more functional for moving objects and complex lighting but the Fujis are lighter and the images they can produce are as good as the Nikon.
However for my flamenco shoots the Fujis are useless.

The D500 will transform the flamenco, the difference will be at least as great as the difference between the D200 and D3, from what I have seen.
