I didnt think snow photography could be that cool! Ill have to try it out when it snows here. How do the lenses handle the cold and moisture though?? Thats why I dont like taking my camera outside when its humid or cold.
You just have to be careful coming from a cold environment to a warm environment. Someone mentioned putting the lens in a bag and then bringing it inside to warm up without moisture getting inside.I didnt think snow photography could be that cool!

During the winter here it regularly drops to below -40 and although the battery does drain faster and the lenses/display fog up when you get back inside the house, there's no problem.
Don't baby your cameras, they're built to handle the elements. Besides, if you just sit there afraid to go outside, you'll never get any photos at all.
Nice set BTW Jason! I'll have to do some processing on my old snow shots too.

Like a camera bag? Then by taking the lens off though couldnt you then expose moisture to the sensor itself?
I might sound a bit paranoid, but after spending all this money on this camera (I know its still an entry level) I want it to last as long as possible. I already found a weak point in its design, the battery hatch. Dont know why Nikon stuck with this battery hatch as its been a huge design flaw with their cameras for decades as they usually break within a year or 2.
I'm the same in that I like to look after my stuff as best as possible, but my general rule of thumb is that I do not replace the lens unless I absolutely have to. Before I go shooting, I decide what I might be shooting and pick an appropriate lens, and try to stick with it if I can. Obviously if I need to change it, I will, but I will only do it if I need to.Like a camera bag? Then by taking the lens off though couldnt you then expose moisture to the sensor itself?

What you want is an aperture somewhere in the middle, say around f/8-f/11.So from the looks of these pictures, I will def be using much higher f stops at 200mm. Probably not f/32 but f/5.6 looks horrible haha. f/32 looks sharp as a tack though.... I wonder what that would reduce my shutter speed to outdoors in sunlight....cant wait to take it out!
Ah, well I raise you a G2 HDRI see your G2 photo and raise you my Nexus 5 HDR.
Whilst we're on the topic of camera phones, do Nokia Lumia 1020 owners want to share some sample photos?http://www.phonearena.com/news/Noki...ples-from-the-41-megapixel-camera_id45207#15-
I won't even post any photos from my phone since the camera is so bad.![]()
If its 41MP how come the images are 3772x1728?

I don't know. The megapixels don't really bother me too much. But the image quality looks fantastic for a camera phone, don't you agree?
