Nikon 200mm f/2 VR Portraits – Set 1
A collection of my portraits (from late Nov ’24 to Apr ’25) created with the Nikon 200mm f/2 VR. This lens was designed for sports photography, but seriously, it’s one of the best portrait lenses due to its clarity and rendering of backgrounds.

But first…using vintage cameras in my ancient technology room! The photos with the timestamp are from the Nikon Coolpix 3700. For this one I dusted off […]

What an outrageous combo the D700 and 200mm f/2 is! I’ve been having fun with it on my morning walks this spring and the occasional portrait session when I have my STR/STAMINA points maxed out for the day. From a beauty and technical level this might be the best lens I have, since it draws […]

It’s been a crazy long winter down here in Georgia (some of the okame cherry tree photos were shot on a 32 degree morning on Feb 22!), here’s hoping the warm weather will fully return soon so I can get some more photo shoots done! As of this week, the peach blossoms have started (the […]

I have enough material from work level stuff to post this quick comparison. Not to show which one is “better,” but to just simply show the image rendering and bokeh that one can get with these two setups. The idea for this came from the Lunar New Year at Stone Mountain, as I wanted to […]

Hello everyone, here are some photos from the last two weeks or so with my new favorite combo, the Nikon D700 “Classic” and 200mm f/2. Yes it’s a heavy beast of a setup, but man are the pictures sharp and colorful, with a contrast and punchiness that can be had straight out of camera. Nothing […]
