Thanks Wim,
I do enjoy it, but for reasons that shall not be described here I can not be directly in the sun, so it is much for the pleasure of my wife <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='
' /> , but it is very nice to wander about and try to get a nice shot somewhere. Lots of nice plants, trees and, if you drive a little, monuments of all kinds. Unfortunately have to go back north tomorrow, but the water is still good for swimming and the sun is hot.
The more I use the equipment, the more I am convinced that for me it would have been a smart thing to start with one or two lenses only and then buy as you really see the need. That being said, what I got is really good. I took some handheld shots with the 70-300 at 300mm across a bay that is 2 km large and the sharpness and detail are amazing.
What do hink of the D7000? I think it shows things to come from Nikon and when the D700 gets the new sensor, there I will be <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='

So, I will have the courage to show some of my pics when I get home and select a little closer. Until then, kind regards Vieux Loup
