    WOW you guys are not kidding about a shallow DOF but the detail that can capture is fantastic

    All taken at 200mm f8, tripod used but the head kept loose (don't forget to hold camera,lol) with VR on.

    NB: it's not hard to have a good DOF with that combination, the zone of sharp focus is so thin, it's would almost be essential in some case to have a focusing track.

    Good stuff Gilles. I usually shoot at f16 or higher to get my DOF a little deeper. I do like your results though.

    I think the perspective on some of these is very creative. Nicely done!
