.... I'm sure you are not the only one complaining Lance :)
Getting nervous seeing you use that low ISO on the D3 and hand holding !!! Not clue why you are doing that? Might have gone a full stop under since the whites are close to being over. Overall will darken some and work on the eye. Can make it more prominent.
Hi Al - 11.30 in the morning - bright sunlight, static subject - really didnt see the need to use a higher ISO. With this lens I know I can hand hold down to 1/60th sec and get tack sharp shots 95% of the time.
Maybe I am wrong but I vcant see any good reason to increase the ISO under these circumstanses, cerainly if I was trying to freeze some action a fatsre shutter speed would have been required, then a increase would have helped. But subject wasn't going anywere and was happy to sit there and look at me.
