So I'm hanging out a bit too much on the Nikon Forum on DPR lately, learning all I can about this DSLR gear. And among the usual squabbling (Nikon shooters eat their own - they don't bother hating Canon, being too busy hating on the Nikon DSLRs they didn't choose!) and occasionally educational thread, I was stopped dead in my tracks today. There's a long thread debating the relative virtues and deficiencies of the 28-300 super-zoom. Many, of course, insist it's not worth the piss it's made of. Others manage to love it for what it is. You know, the usual gear debates.
And then this guy posts an album of travel photography from a recent trip to Myanmar that he shot with a D800 and mostly with this lens, as well as a few shots mixed in from the 17-35mm wide angle lens. And reminds us what incredible work a great photographer can do with even compromised gear. Although the light handling does speak well of the D800, lens aside...

I'm seriously thinking of giving up photography. This guy is THAT good. Do yourself a favor and peruse this - it's scary good...
