I wanted to try using my tripod and the "mirror up" feature of the D7000. I practiced using the Vivitar 70-210mm 3.5 (non VMC) model. My lovely subjects were the Nikon FG and another Vivitar VMC 70-210 3.5. I used a white kitchen table with white computer paper in the background to make it as white as possible. The Fg was given to me as a gift by a member of this forum so it is very special to me.
If I remember right all pictures were taken at F8 or F5.6. This lens had a different Nikon mount than the other Vivitar 70-210mm 3.5 lens I have so the aperture didn't register with the body.

This is one of my favorite pictures. I made it narrow for a banner for any header such as Facebook or any other website.

I do believe it's computer background quality, well at least to me. The two are the same except for the last ones' background isn't so white and isn't cropped down. I kinda like the slightly greyish blue backdrop. The FG in the first one is also darker. Which looks better?

To get the pictures white I had to use the camera's custom WB. Is it possible to use the WB and the flash with the flash changing the color? Ever time I used the flash I get the actual color of the kitchen and not the WB that I set.
