Ever wonder if the Nikon 1 can cut the mustard, in a more serious undertaking, as opposed to just be a mommy’s camera? Well, that’s what I am about to find out next week!
Coupled with the FT-1 and superb ISO performance, it may well gives photographers the little edge to do what it does best - people.
Stay tune!
I reckon architectural and street photography will take dominance in Saigon while interesting landscape pretty distant from existence. And with all the motorcycles, crowd and pick-pockets, it will be foolishness to lug around a big camera as a target board.
Besides, the threatening wet weather being foretold seems to imply that I would be storing my camera gears in and out of the All-weather Lowe Pro sling bag very regularly. In addition, the petite-sized Nikon 1 should minimize my surface area as a snatch target. I think Saigon is not that bad, and perhaps I am greatly exaggerating it.
Now, to grab the moments off the streets, a telephoto lens will come in handy as candid takes become more natural. A 35mm DX glass will function perfectly as the 95mm I need from the Nikon 1. And did I say shoot day would involves crawling in dirt tunnels and watery rivers?
Let’s begin!
The Grim Irish Economy of today, where property valuation has plunged two thirds and jobless rates are at a record high.
Everyone’s looking to getting out to somewhere viable…
Grab a chance to stay in an hundred year old motel if you can in Ireland…you won’t regret it!
More of a test of the Nikon 1’s reach than the cliff itself…
(I do find that the Nikon 1 occasionally mix her focus point when used in conjunction with a DX/FX lens)
