it was completely a joke. and i was suggesting that the end result was great. The lack of AA screen on that sensor is noticeable in the full sized pics and that lens, being a super-zoom, does a pretty darn good job attached it to.

Cool. Thank you. Sorry I cant read sarcasm in real life, not to mention over the internet.

Those are excellent photos. I always check the hair and whiskers and all yours are sharp. I'm glad to see someone else likes superzoom lenses besides me. As if that isn't enough, the lens focuses to one and a half feet! OUTSTANDING!

Sorry, its hard to read undertones on a forum.

They are nice shots and look great on the lens. Unless practicing photoshop skills I personally wouldn't go any further with the editing on them though. Most of the shots have some kind of frame cropping on the subjects. My favourite would be the elephant, if you have cropped it (and you got the whole elephant then that would be great) if not it would probably have been best to shot it in portrait.

Nice shots all round though and a good demo of the camera/lens combo!

Really lovely photos! Good job

I wanted to test something....can I "smart sharpen" this in photoshop to pull out some more detail WITHOUT creating sharpening artifacts....

I will post some more edited ones later.

Yeh, the Photoshopped one does look a bit sharper and has a bit more detail. You've really got a winner with that lens. It's great that Nikon recognizes the value of a super zoom. I wish Canon would get off their butts and do something like that. Sigma as well for that matter.

Hardly

These results are superb and in no way entry level. I'm pleased to see such high quality from the D5300 as I've just bought one and it hasn't arrived yet.

^ Cool, enjoy the camera.


Thanks for the comment.

I will look for some of your pics from the d5300.
