The other nighttime I was roving around looking for something to pip. No rather sure where to travel or what I was attending make. Suddenly I chance on a rampantly `` jittery '' saloon I holded been to once earlierly.

On the earlier juncture, I took a series of exposures of the mixologists. Luckily I holded my Leica M8 and the Noctilux 50mm f/1 lense. Although my Noctilux holds a slight back centering issue, it doed goodly, given the rattlingly dark ambience of the barroom. And remember, with the M8, we are speaking manual centering. In a really subdued barroom. The pic below was taken that first visit.

On the recent visit, I holded n't steel oneself against a return visit. As a consequence I finish up with the D700 and the 14-24mmf2.8 lense. Because this lense is simply capable off/2.8, I dialed upwards the ISO to 6400, desiring that I could counterbalance for the lense ' comparatively deficiency of broad aperture. I half anticipated the car centering to fight and that I would should attend manual centering. Well, this maked n't pass. After I turned forth the AF help light, I moved strictly low impact. I utilise the D700 's spotmeter with `` aperture precedence '' and f-stop2.8.

Station processing was minimum. Noise step-down was turned forth. I took the autonomy of processing some of the B & W in a high contrast mode.

Bottom line, the D700 's performance, including its high ISO capablenesses and the highly fast and accurate autofocus, does it a joyfulness to utilise. The only downside was the downright size of the combination when compared with the M8.
