D300 Live-View Test


When I was jogging this morning I saw a spiderweb back lit from the early sun. I decided to finish running and get my camera. I tested the live-view feature on the D300 and got used to how it works. It's not like my point and shoot screen and takes a little more patience. However, once I got used to the feature, it proved itself useful. With this shot, I needed a higher perspective than I could get at eye level. In live-view I was able to raise the camera angle while focusing with the view screen. It took several attempts but I got what I thought was an acceptable result.

Tom T 47?

Today, I am 7 years older than Tony Hawk. Sure he is a lot richer and can skate me under the table but I still enjoy life to the fullest. ;o)
